i havent posted on here for atleast a year or 2 now...i kinda forgot about this place for some reason...anyway i think i know the true cause of this problem as iv been having the same issues...

1 word.. ALCOHOL... alcohol is the root of this problem... alcohol 120% that is..it has something to do with the virtual drives and the drivers that emulate them screwing with java...it also causes azureus to crash intermittently too, wich is also a java app... if you uninstall alcohol120% it should all work fine...

i dont know how to fix the problem but im allmost positive that thats the cause of it and not java or limewire themselfs.
