Limewire starting, and shutdown.
 
Hello, I've been using Limewire for several years. But all of a sudden I got this problem: I start Limewire, it loads and when it's done with loading it shuts down. I've been reinstalling it for atleast 4 or 5 times but it doesn't help, I have checked if I had Java and of course I did had Java the newest version.

If looked for virusses but found nothing:confused::confused:

Anybody can help?

Thank you very much,

Geetings Mafs.

Try reinstalling Java anyway, just in case something's corrupted: Java SE Downloads
Download the JRE offline installer & remove any other Java versions before installing this one.

Next, 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 change 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.
In case you're using Vista: LimeWire Pref Folder in Vista

If that doesn't help, right click on the LW icon > properties > compatibility. If you're using XP, try running in compatibility mode for Win 2000 or NT. If you're using Vista, run in compatibility mode for XP.

Do you have Alcohol software installed? If so, look here.
