lanita - when you uninstalled limewire did you also delete the limewire
folder from the programs before you downloaded the new limewire version.

Did you do it like this :-

[1] Uninstall the old version before installing the new

v Uninstall Limewire by using LW uninstall program not the add/remove control panel

Start -> All Programs -> Limewire -> Uninstall

[2] Delete the old LW folders from the Programs directory before installing the new
version

v c:\Program Files\Limewire <--- (delete this folder)

[3] Download/Install new version of LW

[4] If you are using JRE-6 (java script) and still have problems download
the older version – JRE-5 from here:- (uninstall JRE-6 first)

If you did it like this then the only other problem I could see and have
experienced was the deleting of the gnutella.net file --
downloading a new gnutella.net.net file and rename it to gnutella.net --
as mentioned in earlier threads --
