Cannot Open Limewire. HELP!
 
Okay. Bare with me here, I don't know much about computers. >_<;

Everytime I click the LimeWire button, it doesn't do much. All it comes up with is this thing that says 'LimeWire 4.14 (c) 2000-2007' for about 2 seconds then it goes away. :shoot:

I have Windows XP & LimeWire Basic. HELP!!!!!

Try updating your Java: 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.
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, or in compatibility mode for XP if you use Vista.

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