Default "loading user interface"

Hello!
I am having a heck of a time getting past the "Loading user interface screen when I click on my limewire icon.

Here is what I have done so far:
*Uninstalled and re-installed Limewire about 20 times.
* Upgraded to Pro and uninstalled and re-installed
* Changed my Norton Firewall to Permit
*Uninstalled and reinstalled Java
* Re-installed my graphics card drivers
I contacted Limewire and they referred me to this web-site and I have tried everything and nothing is working!
I have used limewire on this computer before, it just stopped loading, and I have no idea what I did previous to it stopping.

Any sugguestions would be great!

Windows XP
Limewire PRO 4.10
Norton

Follow the instructions in the order listed below also un install all versions of java if you have more than one use the offline installers of Java and LimeWire.

You will need to install Java and LimeWire manually First go to the first link.You can find Links to java in there Download Java to your hard drive by putting a mark in the save to disc box. Save it to my documents or wherever you save downloads from the internet. Do the same with LimeWire the second link will take you there.

Now with that done click on start then control panel add/remove programs and see if Java is listed on the list if it is uninstall it. Do the same with LimeWire if the un installers were not loaded you may have to manually delete the files. But in most cases this is not necessary.

Now click on the Java installer you saved to your hard drive and follow the instructions after you have completed that do the same with LimeWire.

Please post back and let us know if it worked. If it did not I will give further instructions on manually deleting Java and LimeWire.

The only other thing I can suggest at this time is un install LimeWire and Java run a search on your computer by going to Start/search/all files and folders and delete anything that says LimeWire or Java then reboot and follow the above instructions use the offline installers of Java and LimeWire. I do not know that it will work bu it is worth a try.
