Default Limewire won't even open - Java JRE problem

Hello everyone and salutations. My first post.
I had a Mcafee error that required uninstalling and reinstalling that program. Perhaps by coincidence, I cannot open Limewire. By clicking on my desktop icon, I immediately get the error message: "Limewire Launcher Error: Limewire needs the Java Runtime Environment 5.0 or above. Click OK to go to java.com where you can install java."
Well, having done that twice now, I see 104 different java files on my computer, some java 1.5 and others 1.6, all recently added. Everything else works on the computer, and I can surf eBay and other online sites freely. Limewire won't open even for the help box. I have an older system..new one 4-6 months away.
I'm running Win98SE 933 mhz, P-III, IE6.0, Cable modem.
'What to do? help please...
