Limewire Opens, Shows Logo, Nothing Happends

[rando]

just like the title says. the program shows the logo and then it goes away and no limewire opens. nothing in the task bar, nothing in TASK MANAGER. It was working fine a few days ago. I've restarted, reinstalled and nothing. still opens and closes.

I have latest JAVA

-G

[wondering why]

Try uninstalling your Java from the add/remove programs and then re-install the JRE 5.11 offline version....(4th one down)
Java SE Downloads - Previous Release - JDK 5

If that does not help with your problem try deleting your preference folder...

I did delete java JRE 6.01 and installed Java JRE 5.11 and Limewire works fine again, thanks for this help.
But now Java automaticaly wants to install the update 6.01 again
What to do? How can I prevent java to auto update?

[wondering why]

Just keep telling it NO.. It can only update if you choose to do it...

There have been many flaws using limewire with vista. So go to the vista section and there a quite a few answers.
