goodmorning Brendan, ok lets try this -- delete yr current java 6.0 from the add/remove programs list and install this older version 5.0 from here:-
Archive: Download Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5.0 Update 11
Download the JRE offline installer & remove any other Java versions (via Add/Remove Programs) before installing another one.

Is there ne fix to this problem now?

Brendan

when you say youve done that do you mean that you deleted the gnutella.net file and replaced it with a new one as per the instructions -- did you also go through all the fixes in (If LW will not connect) in Limewire Links -- pse update me on the limewire version youre using with java 5.0

Brendan,

If updating the latest java version doesnt fix yr problem have a look at this:-

go to yr limewire icon on yr desktop:-
right click on the LW icon -> properties -> compatibility. For XP, try running in compatibility mode for Win 2000 or NT. For Vista, run in compatibility mode for XP.
