My God Thank You! I spent 3 and a half hours with microsoft support becuase I couldnt figure out what made it quit. I have a query already with LW support. I dont understand why it works but it does. thanks

except now limewire wont even try to connect to anyone else on the network... It worked great a week ago.. anyone else? I disabled zone alarm, and all firewalls... nothing.. not even any pending connections

.... well after another restart back to square one. Vista got rid of the Aero thingy and then LW started, loaded protocol etc and then poof it was gone.. Left only the process.

Pleased to see all is fine.

check programs & Features (Control Panel) To make sure only the 5.0 Update 12 version of java is installed, and the most up to date version of LW.... it'll default to the newer version otherwise.

yeah i doubled checked it. I uninstalled 6 first and then installed 5 u 12.

you getting the same Java error log in program files/limewire folder???

Mine all started with

EXCEPTION_FLT_STACK_CHECK (0xc0000092) at pc=0x010cd0a9, pid=2276, tid=3024


I don't think the numbers were always the same, but you get the idea...

yeah and it made another directory folder limewire (101) filled with error logs....

get JRE 5
 

experiencing the same problem, it is a JRE 6 compatibility issue with Limewire, uninstall JRE 6 and install JRE 5 and it will work, wait for a new java or limewire update.
