Default Limewire Opens then closes.

Ok,I've downloaded and installed a few times, but every time I install my Limewire It opens everything loads up but right when I click on limewire. It closes instantly.
Anyone know why this is happening.

Do you have Alcohol software installed? If so, look here.
LW starts then close, log: resolve_virtual_call

If that doesn't help, try updating your Java: Java SE Downloads
Download the JRE offline installer & remove any other Java versions before installing this one.

Or see whether deleting LW's preferences folder when LW's properly closed helps. 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.
If you're using Vista: LimeWire Pref Folder in Vista

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

Thank you!, It was because I had Alcohol 120% Installed. Thank you very much.
