First, reinstall Java again (sorry). Use the offline JRE installer & remove your current Java version before you install the new one. See point 1 here
Fixes for LimeWire

Delete the LW preferences folder. That's point 3 above (also point 2 if you've used much older versions of LW before).

Then install LW using the offline installer (not the recommended one)

If you're still having trouble, try the 'other' installer & see how that goes
