I have the same problem I think!
Within the first couple of minutes running limewire, I get an "Illegal Operation" which reads the following details:

JAVAW caused an invalid page fault in
module <unknown> at 0000:30303030.

I have tried re-installing and it doesn't seem to help. I am running Windows 98, with limewire 1.8

PLEASE!!!!!! Can anyone help????
