After my last post I tried something else that worked for me. Hopefully it will for you too.

After I installed Limewire I uninstalled all Java Runtime Environments(JREs) - then reinstalled the JRE ver 1.4.0 - then started Limewire - you should get a message that it can't find the javaw.exe file - click browse - go to the windows/system32 folder & click on the javaw.exe file.

That's it! It worked for me. Hopefully it will for some of you.
