![]() I have uninstalled and reinstalled limewire versions 4.14.1 and limewire 4.12.6 several times each, but I still have the same problem with both versions everytime. I'm also using Java(Tm)6 update 2, and I was using an earlier version of Java before that, but limewire support said to uninstall and reinstall limewire and java, so I have several times. But here's what happens everytime. Once limewire is installed, and then it starts to run, then a Language Options Display pops up as to choose a language, but when you try to click on the arrow to select a language it locks up, and everything else on the display locks up too, so you can't even click on the continue or next button, because it locks up too. I tried restarting the computer, but it still locks up the same way when I relaunch limewire. I actually have to click on control,alternate, & delete to click out of the display. Please! Can anyone help me? I'm using a Hp computer using windows XP |

![]() Wondering why, I just did everything you said to do with both the java and limewire, but it did the same exact thing as I stated above. So that's several versions of java & limewire both now, and all doing the same thing. I just don't get it. I don't know what to do. |

![]() I'm actually having the same type of problem. I installed and have been using Lime wire 4.14.1 a little over a week ago with virtually no problems and then today it has started freezing up. I open the program and it gets to the stage where it begins to connect and the locks up every time I try it. I have un-installed and re-installed several times. I have even gone through the trouble of re-downloading the installer program and still it keeps locking up. Any suggestions that can help? |
