Limewire shuts down all by itself?
 
I am new to this forum so I hope I am posting this in the right place:)
Anyways I have had limewire for awhile now and all of a sudden it just started shutting itself off. I can not figure out why, I can start it right back up and it runs for awhile and sometimes it will shut down again. I have only my virus scanners and firewalls running when I use Limewire, I shut down all other programs. I have already scanned for viruses and I found none. Like I said this just started a few days ago. I have Windows XP home edition and I just bought the computer about 7 months ago. Please if you think you know why it is doing this please let me know I appreciate anyones help... Thank you:)

Go to add/remove programs & remove your current version of Java. Now reinstall JRE using the offline installer

Delete LW's preferences folder (make sure LW's properly closed), see points 2 & 3 below

Now reinstall LW using the offline installer

Have you installed or updated any antispyware lately? If so, make sure LW is on the list of exceptions/allowed apps. Or disable any antispyware you're using & see if LW stays open:)

This is a problem that I don't know the answer to. But you can try some of the fixes in the link below. Try the .limewire fix. And if that doesn't work try uninstalling and reinstalling Java.
