You'll need to post your system details: System details - help us to help you

Here's some suggestions to try.

If your running McAfee, the fix for most is to uninstall McAfee and run another program. Avast is a good one. Some people have been able to get it to work without uninstalling McAfee.

Also d/load and install Java 6, the one called (Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6u1) using the offline installer http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

Okay i found out how to fix that problem on my computer. i as well have a vista that i cannot stand but anyway. go to uninstall programs and find java uninstall it then click on limewire its going to tell you u need a java and it will bring you to a site. pick the new one for vista and install it. after that it should work. You might have to shutdown after then reboot to make to work.

the java reinstall worked a treat thanks
