Why do I get a Kernel32.Dll error caused by Java2 everytime I shut down Limewire?
Is there a way to fix it.
Thanks

this issue is related to the java application or limewire it's self, i have been experiencing the same issue and have reloaded for the issue. the problem is only present after installing limewire and jre. tech support at limewire needs to address this and find a resolution.

it's easy to say update your os, contact tech support for your os, but that is just PASSING THE BUCK!

if limewire's tech support can't resolve it, replace them with a new batch of monkey's that can!

I AGREE!!!

I downloaded the latest version of Limewire yesterday (8-6-02)and am getting the same error upon shutdown:

Illegal operation:
JAVAW caused an invalid page fault in
module KERNEL32.DLL at 015f:bff7b997.

I agree the suggestion to update Windows is passing the buck. There is obviously something wrong with the Java module I installed.

I hope Limewire will address this issue soon.

Im getting that same error...uninstalled it...reinstalled it...same error everytime..have to reboot to get back into windows...what is wrong?...

this never happened until downloading the latest version of limewire. i get the same message EVERYTIME i use limewire. is there a solution?

It would help in trying to track down what might be causing the problem if you could post some information:

What operating system (Kernel32.dll means it is windows, but 95, 98, ME, XP, NT or 2K?)?
What version of Java (If you haven't already done so, downloading version 1.4 would be a good idea - the link is on the download pages)?
What version of LimeWire (The latest version - 2.5.5. is the most stable version for a while, here at least)?

Many, many people are running LimeWire without a problem - if there is a bug, it is specific to certain setups. Without more information about what each of you has setup, there is no way to find out what the common cause might be.

You could try downloading and installing from the alternate installer (I think this is less automatic - but may bypass the problems you are having).

Windows ME with both the latest versions of JAVA and lime wire. Same problem here, After shut down KERNELL32.DLL message comes up and wont go away. If I fire up y PC and don't use LIMEWIRE programm everything runs fine. It only errors after limewire shut down.

Add me to the group. First time using this program, and I am also coming up with the same problem after shut down. KERNELL32.dll.
That little massgae window pops up and it won't go away. It requires a hard shut down and a full reboot with scan to correct the problem. Only happens with "LIMEWIRE". I am running windows ME with limewire 2.5.5 and JAVA 1.4.

It's a real bug, and passing the buck is not going to help. Any senior members here with a real solution?

I am using windows 98, java 1.4, and limewire 2.5.5, and everytime i shut down limewire i get the window also with the kernel error....I have found out if i hit, ctrl,alt,delete, and knock out limewire when the window comes up, that i don't have to reboot the whole system and scan for errors....seems like limewire would be willing to try and come up with a solution, since this is a major problem....thanks....
