Default Trouble Connecting

When i try to open limewire, the normal loading screen comes up, but when the loading is done the entire limewire screen doesn't show up. The loading screen disapears and it just totally exits out.

If anybody could help me that'd be so great! TY so much!

What version of LW & Java are you using (in LW click on Help, then click on About Limewire & you'll see)?

Try installing this version of Java. Use the JRE offline installer & remove your current Java version before you install this one.
Archive: Download Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5.0 Update 11

If that doesn't help, delete LW's preferences folder when LW's properly closed. See point 3 here & also point 2 if you've used older versions of LW in the past (there could be a folder in either location).
Fixes for LimeWire
This will kill all of your settings within options, you'll have to go back through afterwards & reset things. If you're not sure of your settings, go through LW's tools > options & write them all down, so that you can reset things later

Also try changing compatibility (point 5 in the 'Fixes' thread).
