Just a quick Question
 
I recently downloaded LW Pro and im having some trouble viewing text on searches, downloads and such. I seem to only be getting half or less of eah letter of a word sometime none at all. just wondering if anyone has a fix for this as i think i got to about page 25 in this forum before i gave up and decided to post.

Ive already installed the newest version of Java.

Thanks in advance for any help

Display sounds like a problem with the graphic card or monitor, though I'm not sure.
You could try to right click the LW icon on the desktop and then choose Properties>Compatibility and change the compatibility mode to either Windows NT or Windows 2000..........

Ok i redownloaded my drivers and installed again... Fixed the problem but now i have this pop up every 5-10 sec or so saying that says "Limewire was unable to write a necessary file because you do not have necessary permissions

I think you got a virus my friend.and maybe you dont use the admin rights in your xp

well then uninstall limewire and boot your computer with the safe mode and install limewire again.I hope it works for you

First thing to try is to delete the LW preference folder as described in this thread:
http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=36420
If this doesn't fix it, uninstall LW and all Java on your computer. The downlaod the JRE offline installer of the newest version (1.5.0_07) from here:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp
Make sure that you reboot after uninstalling and after new-installing of Java before re-installing LW also using the offline installer.exe.
