Default "Unable to use the specified folder" on normal user

I have a problem when running limewire as a normal (non-root) user. When I run LW for the first time I, upon specifying a download folder, get a message that LimeWire was unable to use the specified folder for saving files. I already set the user group to the user I want to use, but I still cannot run Limewire. Is also set the group permission to r, w and x, yet I keep having this problem.
Can anyone suggest something that might help.

Thanks in advance,

Ton van Boxtel
