Following is the output in bash for echo $PATH:

This is the output for echo $JAVA_HOME:

/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0

And this is the /etc/profile:

JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2re1.4.1_02
PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
export JAVA_HOME

(No other JAVA entries)

/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0 does not exist, so - unsurprisingly - LimeWire refuses to install.

Assuming my profile is correct, where does the echo $JAVA_HOME /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.0 come from? Why does it not echo /usr/java/j2re1.4.1_02?

Thanx for any help.
Did you run:

source .bash_history or .bashrc

before testing your JAVA_HOME path?

Either that or simply logout and log back in order for it to use your new changes.
