Are you still getting this error with the LimeWire 2.0 installer?

YES
 

YES I DO! HELP

First, make sure that all previous versions of LimeWire are uninstalled in the Settings>>Control Panel>>Add/Remove Programs window.

Once you have done this, try restarting and then running the LimeWire installer again.

I'm going on vacation, so I won't be able to help you until the middle of January, but the above is the best I can recommend.

I received this 1628 error when I installed Limewire Basic Windows XP (English Only).

At the download site try installing the "(International)" version. This one worked for me. Hope it helps!

mayherstupidmouth: There is a chance you received this error b/c your installshield engines need updating (for the english installer.) I put a sticky at the top of the installation>windows section to explain about this & where to go to update your install engines. At present the international version uses Java 1.3 & forces it to use 1.3 to cope with international characters. But, a later version of Java is generally prefered so the english installer is generally the prefered option so it can use later versions of Java.
