A previous version has been installed on my computer for a year and worked fine - the other day I tried to access and got as error message "Limewire was unable to load, download and install Limewire agian". I have tried to download several times (5.5 version) and it appears to be successful, but then I get the same message. I last used it and downloaded music within the last couple of months and now it just won't work - any ideas what the problem could be?

Sorry for very late reply, somehow your post was missed. Did you fix the problem? Try this: Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included 2nd last post of page.) Making sure you backup your downloads.dat file first.

An alternative or what you can also do is use this technique of reinstalling: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/355685-post13.html
