BTW I gave it a 5 star Rating, since it wlll most likely find people in a similar scenario.
Edited to provide more info:
http://www.gnutellaforums.com/window...-wont-run.html Which version of Java should I download for my Windows 64-bit operating system? . (Has links to both 32 and 64 bit Java installers)
Another post to look at is this one:
http://www.gnutellaforums.com/window...tallation.html * Set both LW and Java installers to run as Administrator by right-clicking them & choosing that option before installing either of them. 
(For LW you can right-click the shortcut on desktop & choose 'Run as Admin' option after installing (Sample image), to do equivalent with Java is a little more tricky, see above "Java not found" link in point #6.) Edit: (a) LW 5 and LPE will not launch with Java 7 (1.7) directly. A workaround fix was found by pongo1 here

LW 4 versions are unaffected and will happily run under Java 7.

(b) 64-Bit Java 7 Update problems.

The newest update of Java 7: the 32-bit Java should be updated last. Otherwise a problem will occur with (a) java error when opening LW, (b) LW changing it's download location and location of settings.
