Try these things:
1. use your add/remove control panel to remove Java.
2. Downld the "Offline" Java 1.5 which is a 15 MB downld & install it: Java 1.5 (take the JRE)
3. Delete LW's preferences folder; instructions here: Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.)
4. Try re-opening LW.

Does your McAfee have antispyware protection as well (sorry for the ignorance, I don't use McAfee!!)? If so, make sure LW is on the list of exceptions/allowed apps. Or try disabling it just for a while, see if LW will load then.

i tryed disabling mcafee and LW still wont run
and in order to put LW on the list thing i have to be able to open it

Sorry, I'm a bit stumped then. You deleted your old Java versions before you reinstalled Java, right? And you've reinstalled LW? Both with the offline installers?

You could try deleting your preferences folder once more,keep McAfee disabled & see if it makes any difference. You could try changing compatibility, point 5 in LOTR's fixes for LW link in his earlier post.
