I downloaded the LM program but every time I try to start it the title screen comes up but then I get a message saying "this program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down" When I click the details button on the message it says

To answer the basic questions:
I'm on windows 98SE
No firewall that I'm aware of
63 MB of ram
I couldn't find an amount for hard disk space
I have a cable broadband connection through a Belkin wireless USB network adapter and Belkin wireless G router set up at the house here
Newest LM version
ISP is Insight Communications
Test page worked
Not my first time using LM but is first time with this PC
And I live in the USA
And I checked my security settings and they all look ok to me.
I even put limewire.com in as a trusted site and still no effect.
