Go to Start/control Panel/Add Remove Programs and uninstall Java all versions. Then click on the Java button in my sig and get Java use the manual download link and save the Java offline installer to your desktop. Reboot your computer then install java using the installer you saved to your desktop.

Default Limewire PRO problem - takes over a minute to closedown

Hi Grandpa, as a new user I am unable to post a thread quite yet, however I'm experiencing a problem with LW and wondered if you may have any ideas.. Recently, (past month), when I start LW, it runs ok, connects ok, and downloads ok. The downloaded files are stored on a separate USB drive (300gb) (used about 70gb so far), and LW program is on drive C, my main drive, however when I fire LW up, the drive I store my files on goes into overdrive, to the point that while LW is running, any other files on the drive are very, very slow to respond (e.g. music files). I suspect a bug of some sort, however Mcafee, Norton, Lavasoft or Housecall (run all of them!) hasn't found anything, nor RegMech registry cleaner.
The reason I suspect a bug is that my drive never did this before (I've been using Limewire Pro for some time now). I've tried removing LW and re-installing, that didn't work, and because of the drive working overtime, LW takes over a minute to actually closedown from when I want it to. Sometimes I have to go to taskmanager to force it to close.
Any suggestions would be a help, and thanks in anticipation! Regards Charlyc
