Xxexecute is flying high
Default LW doesn't load.

I've been using the free version of LW for awhile now and all of a sudden it just doesn't open. I've tried to reinstall it, reinstall Java, delete the .limewire folder, reinstall again and it still doesn't open. It goes to the screen where it usually says Connecting to network... but there is nothing there and it just closes down. It's not on my process list or my system tray. I have no viruses or spyware, I've scanned repetitavly. Any help would be appreciated.


PC Specs:
OS: AMD Athalon 4600+ 64bit
RAM: 2GB
Video Card: NVIDEA GeForce 7950gt
All my equipment is pretty high tech.

You could try rolling back your version of Java. Some people have been having trouble with 6.1

Here's a link for 5.12 (4th one down)

Java SE Downloads - Previous Release - JDK 5

Good Luck

Dan

Also make sure you uninstall 6.1 from your add/remove programs first...
