You say,
"I'm using J2SE 5.0 Update 10, with either Limewire 5.12.6 or 5.13 beta"
Ive never herd of L/W versions like this can you confirm.
Un install all java and all L/W versions COMPLETLY before reinstall of boath.
Oh & use the off line installer, for java.
Do a search on your com for L/W files and delete all of them
Oh coppy your D/L files to a new folder before deleting L/W.
Peace.

The current version of Limewire is 4.12.6, and the current beta version is 4.13.0. You can check the download page here: http://www.limewire.com/english/cont...oadfree2.shtml . I downloaded both of these to reinstall in hopes that my problem had been addressed recently, but nothing changed. I used the offline installer for java already, however I didn't have both java and limewire uninstalled before reinstallation, so I'll give that a shot next time around.

Thanks again for all your time!,
