Default cannot open limewire

Hello all,

I've been using limewire satisfactorily for several years until now.

I logged on and went to open it and nothing???

I uninstalled then reinstalled.........no response[limewire 4.12.6]

I would be most grateful for any ideas.
Thanks

Did you try point 5....
5. Right-clicking the Limewire icon and going to properties and change compatability setting to Windows 2000. (but only if you're using Windows 2000 or later.) Somebody reported changing to Windows NT compatibility fixed their problem despite not using that operating system version.

Had a successful attempt yesterday to re establish Limewire connection.

Uninstalled Java and Limewire.
Re installed Java [from thread link] and Limewire[offline; not the recommended version of xp
