Did you reboot your computer?

Other things I can think of trying:
Go to the programs folder, find LW and right-click and choose Properties, Owner tab, edit and add your admin account to it if it is not already listed.
Find the LW shortcut on desktop, right-click and choose Run as Admin.
Just to check the shortcuts installed properly, go the the LW program folder > lib > LimeWire.jar file and double-click it.

If those do not work, would you consider uninstalling 64-bit java and only utilizing the 32-bit Java?
Control panel > Programs & Features, find 64-bit Java and uninstall.

(Strange, I updated Java from 7_09 to 7_10, restarted computer and the Java CP still said I had version 7_09. Reinstalled with offline & same thing.)

Failing all of this, you may need to step back to Java 6. Disable or uninstall Java 7; disabling can be done via the Java control panel under the Java tab.
