I just got Limewire 4.16.7, and I am still having problems getting it to start. I have windows XP SP2. My firewall and antivirus are disabled while I am trying to fix this issue. The loading screen comes up, but then the screen that asks where I want my music saved shows up, and no matter what button I press on that menu, limewire just shuts down and disappears off of the running processes.

I did everything that all the threads have mentioned.

• I uninstalled LW
• I uninstalled ALL versions of Java
• I downloaded jdk-1_5_0_11-windows-i586-p.exe
• I deleted the limewire folder in the application data file
• Then I installed jdk-1_5_0_11-windows-i586-p.exe
• I installed LW 4.16.7
• All of the installations are offline installations.

I still get the same problem after all of these steps. I tried all possibilities that all the threads have mentioned and still no hope. I also have to mention something odd though, which is that I don't actually see Java running on the tray area next to the clock....isn't it supposed to be there, or be running before limewire starts? Oh yea, and I don't have Alcohol either!
