Hi Guys,
I am having the same problem, which just started a week ago. I tried the recommended fix by Lord of the Rings, but LimeWire still doesn't work. Only difference now is that it goes past the "Loading User Interface" box, but the program crashes right away when LimeWire asks to to Upgrade to Pro. So I actually never have a chance to do anything within the application.

Any other possible trouble shooting tips??

Please help!

man. i wish someone knew how to fix this.
i miss using limewire!!

There are some other fixes here (besides the deleting prefs & reinstalling Java), see if they help

I am having the same problem, but it also seems to have connected itself to my saved file - where limewire stores all my downloads. I was in the process of downloading some stuff today and LW flashes and then vanished. I tried to reopen it and it would go throug the normal opening series and then I would get no work screen. So I intaslled the new 4.10 version and it still has the same problem. At that time I tried to open my saved file and I keep getting an error from windows
