Thank you for your reply. I have been removing each version before reinstalling java. I am now running the 1.5.0_11 with no luck after running the 1.6.0_07 that did notseem to work either. I can never seem to find the file .limewre so I remove Limewire completely. I don't think Vista uses the folder .limewire but I could be wrong. And yes I do have to go back through the LW install wizard each time. No matter what I set my compatibility to, it reverts itself to the XP setting. I had been removing through Add/Remove, but then followed your uninstall suggestion. I also followed LOTR's post and used the cleaner and installed the older version of LW, but that stays at the Loading Internationalization Support page also. I'm not sure of any other p2p apps and I don't know anything about being an admin as this is my home computer. Don't worry about to many questions, I appreciate your help.
