Question LW keeps shutting down?

I'm running win xp and the latest LW and for some reason Lw keeps shutting down. No error messages or anything it just shuts down sometimes after a minute or an hour it's random. I've checked for viruses and all that and my systems clean. Any ideas?

Try these things:

1. Remove all your previous Java versions using the Add/Remove control panel.

2. Reinstall Java using ONLY the OFFLINE version listed here: Download Java software from Sun Microsystems

3. Delete your previous LW preferences folder if you had LW on your computer previously; Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.) Or if using VISTA, see http://www.gnutellaforums.com/genera...der-vista.html ___ (Remember to make a note of important settings such as download location, shared folders, speed settings, days to keep incompletes, etc.)

4. Install LW using this version: http://www9.limewire.com/download/LimeWireWin-full.exe __ (the installer will remove any previous LW version at beginning of installation process)

(b) Run this small utility to clean registry: Crap Cleaner
