Check that LW is not still running in your processes in you Task Manager first..(ctrl>Alt>delete)...If it is end the process, if it's not try these fixes...

Try uninstalling your Java from the add/remove programs and then re-install the JRE offline version....(5th one down)
Java SE Downloads - Previous Release - JDK 5

Then uninstall Limewire using the uninstaller which is found in start > all programs > limewire...then re-install it using the offline installer...

If that does not help with your problem try deleting your preference folder...

Wondering Why, when I went to my Add or Remove Programs, and I went down to Java, there were quite a few Java Applications that I saw, which one do I get rid of or do I get rid of all of them? Heres what I saw when I got to the Java part of the Add/Remove Programs...

J2SE Runtime Enviroment 5.0 Update 10 145.00 MB
J2SE Runtime Enviroment 5.0 Update 2 143.00 MB
J2SE Runtime Enviroment 5.0 Update 6 145.00 MB
J2SE Runtime Enviroment 5.0 Update 8 145.00 MB
J2SE Runtime Enviroment 5.0 Update 9 145.00 MB
Java 2 Runtime Enviroment, SE v1.4.2 78.49 MB
Java 2 Runtime Envrioment, SE v1.4.2_04 130.00 MB
Java 2 Runtime Enviroment, SE v1.4.2_05 130.00 MB
Java 2 Runtime Enviroment, SE v1.4.2_06 130.00 MB
Java(TM) SE Runtime Enviroment 6 Update 1 159.00 MB

The reason I am asking is because I play an Online Game that uses Java and I dont want to mess it up lol... I dont want to go and delete the wrong thing and mess up the game. When I reinstall the Offline Java, do I need to do all the updates again or does it come with the newest Java? Thanks again!

If you have games that rely on certain Java's don't delete all of them...
Delete the Java 6 and get the offline version of it here...(4th one down)
Java SE Downloads

The Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE) allows end-users to run Java applications. <----- This is the correct version right?
