I Need Help Bad!!! (freezing at 'upgrade to Pro')
 

:bangh: could someone please help me with this, when i start up limewire it goes into the whole upgrade to PRO thing and from then on you cant select anything on that window or change to a new one... this has happened to me hundreds of times, the only way i can close it is by ctrl+alt+del: Task manager. I restart my computer and i reinstall limewire again and again with no results. If anyone could help me out here i will be so grateful of your time.:aweof:

What version of Java are you using? Try this version. Download the JRE offline installer & remove any other Java versions before you install this one.

If that doesn't help, delete LW's preferences folder when LW's properly closed. See point 3 here & also point 2 if you've used older versions of LW in the past (there could be a folder in either location).
Fixes for LimeWire
This will kill all of your settings within options, you'll have to go back through afterwards & reset things. If you're not sure of your settings, go through LW's tools > options & write them all down, so that you can reset things later.
LimeWire Pref Folder in Vista

ive tried all that as i see it posted on all threads... thanks but it doesnt work.

For Vista ... actually I think it may need java 1.6 but not to completely change advice, check options 5 & 6 in Fixes for LW. They also can play a surprisingly major role. Also, try setting up a test account on your computer with admin abilities, then try opening LW from there.

If all that doens't work ... then try this version -> Welcome, MiHD.net - World's most generous file web hosting service
Careful which links you click .. initially the one on top left, then far right on 2nd window. ;)
You can before doing that go to Start menu -> Programs -> LW -> Uninstall.

OH sorry that is the basic version ... but make sure it works ... if so then let us know. ;) :)

Edit: It is ALWAYS reccommended to delete your LW prefs folder if upgrading to PRO. ;)

I am having same problem, any progress on this?
