Your pc may not be fast enough even mine do's it what it's trying to do is compile ever thing all at once and it just take's a little bit longer that's all
Or try to do a defrag on your drive or drive's if you have two.Or a nother reason is you dont have enough Ram you need at lest 1GB now a days to have a fast computer.i have 768 witch is a 256chip and a 512chip that's =768mb of ram witch is more than enough for your pc.But if i am wrong that you both have more than that then that's good.You all so might have a lot of bad problems that you dont no about yet.I would try this.System Machanic 7 Professional it's about 50$ at walmart but here is a link from download.com it's a 30 day trail.

Okay I Fixed my Limewire On My Windows XP. For the past 6 Days, Every time I tried to open LW, Nothing would happen. I went to Add/Remove programs and deleted Java and all of the updates. I went to the Sun website and Downloaded the SE JRE version 6 offline installer. I saved the program to my documents, double clicked on the Java Icon and installed version 6 without any updates. The LW Icon on my desktop worked when I clicked on it, but an error message popped up saying an error ocurred and to download LimeWire again. I popped in my LimeWire Pro disk and Downloaded it again. I had to go through the setup process again, but I just did a quick search on my hard drive to get all my files back into the LimeWire library. I hope you didn't get as frustrated as I did, and I hope maybe this was helpful. If you need better instructions as to how I did this, Private message me and I will give you a better description of what I did to resolve the issue.
