If I were you I would go to Sun and download Java from there instead of using VM. I have XP all I do is go here: http://java.sun.com/getjava/download.html Seems to work find with me and also I would download the new version of Limewire which is 2.3.1. If you download it from CNET don't worry if it listed as the old version it's not it's the new version.
