I have repeatedly installed and uninstalled the newest version of Liewire and it will not start. I am running XP Pro. As soon as I click the finish button on the installation wizard, the square Limewire window appears for a second and then disappears. I do not get an error message and nothing ever happens. Is there anything that I may be doing wrong? How can I begin to run Limewire?

I finally got an error......
