Default Crash (limewire just disappears)

hi,this has been bugging me for ages and i need some help if possible.

When start limewire,it loads normally past the loading screen and then the program comes up.the whole program loads and a few seconds after its ready,it just disappears from my desktop and i checked processes and applications in task manager and its not there either.

Could someone please help me.Thanks.

Try uninstalling all versions of Java from the add/remove programs and then re-install the JRE 5.11 offline version....

Try deleting your preference folder/s...This will reset your configurations back to default and get rid of any corruption that may of happened...
