Do you still have CA Anti-Spyware on your computer? Whilst it is a good spyware program, p2p sharing programs do not run happily beside it.
There are lots of alternatives to CA Anti-Spyware. Personally I use Spybot - Search & Destroy (FREE) with a few other security utilities. And there's at least a couple other good ones also I could give you the links to.

Hi minimoongirl1119,

Try installing FW to a different folder. Check out proxy00's advice here (refers to LW but do the same for FW): FIX: LimeWire won't start or closes immediately

If that's no help, try this older java (JRE 6u5): Archive: Download Java Platform Standard Edition (Java SE) 6u5
As usual - download the JRE offline installer, remove all other Java versions installed on your computer, install & then reboot the computer.

I tried both these suggestions neither one did the trick. This is really starting to bug me out because other then FW refusing to load and even Limewire having the exact same problem my computer is completely normal. It's really frustrating especially since I'm an AMV editor(anime Music video) I use a lot of music so this devolopment is very upsetting as you might imagine. Even though nothing has worked thus far I appreciate everyone's help I really do! I;m sure there must be something to fix it right? especially since it worked before.

I completely uninstalled CA because back when I had got FW to work it had been giving me update problems I have AVG now.
