System details - help us to help you (click on blue link)

Sounds like a ram or permissions error, but could also be a corrupt installation of either Java or LW.

Are you sure this answer is correct ?

If it is correct then, along with any other possible problem(s), you have a serious problem with lack of 'free' space.

Spyware Doctor hmmm ... many spyware utilities are not p2p friendly & consider many p2p programs as spyware when they are not. It may have damaged LW. Put LW on it's safelist just in case.

I'd recommend (1) removing all Java versions, then re-installing Java using ONLY the Offline version. (2) downloading LW OFFLINE version. Then reinstalling.

The question about available space refered to your system partition, not other drives in this case.

OK... This 'interruption' of mine with asking you about your C: Drive may not bear any direct relation to the problem you are now experiencing, so I apologise...

BUT, can you please tell us what the total size of your C: Drive is declared to be ?
Unless you are using a quite old computer I assume that your C: Drive is at least 40 or 80GB - And probably much bigger.

If so, then you definitely have an extreme shortage of 'free' disk space... This will cause you many many problems.

1. See if you can free up space on C drive. Move some files over to other drives.

2. After freeing up space, defragment all your drives.

Ok. But I'm wondering what has the disk space got to do with problems with Limewire?
