Default Internet Explorer 7 error at start up (problem solved!!!)

I was pondering the usual question - "Is it me?"
I have used LW (Basic) for a few years, and updated whenever needed. A few days ago I upgraded my browser to Internet Explorer 7. Now LW won't even start.
1. I have reloaded from the LW site, recommended Windows version ... no good.
2. Complete un-install of LW, followed by a search and manual delete of anything left and a clean re-install, the system worked.
3. Switch off (bedtime) and restart in the morning ... no good.
4. Repeat step 2. OK.
5. System restart ... no good.

The error I get is a Microsoft error box, the basic information is:

AppName: limewire.exe AppVer: 0.0.0.0 ModName: limewire.exe
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 00002347

My system details (as requested) are:
OS Windows XP Pro SP2, fully up to date.
Browser Internet Explorer 7
RAM 2048MB or 2 Gigs
HDD space 67% of 250GB You work it out.
Con type ADSL (1.1Mb/256Kb)
Modem Voyager 205
Router Netgear MR814 v3
Connecting from home
LW Version 4.12.6
ISP Orange internet (Wanadoo)
The test page advised worked correctly
Does 800+ tracks downloaded count as an experienced user?
My firewall is Zone Alarm, but that has never thrown a problem in the past, it is set up for Limewire.

It seems to me that there could be a bit of a problem when trying to run Limewire on Internet Explorer 7. Has anyone else come across this, please?

Regards, Brian.
