Hi Guys

An update on my plight. LW is still crashing and it appears to be when the connecting icon becomes active. I have tried all that is detailed in the threads such as completely removing LW and Java (latest), using JRE6.5, reinstalling with offline versions etc.

History - I first noticed difficulties when I moved to LW5, within a few weeks I believe. No other programs were installed on my PC between the upgrade to LW5 and the beginning of the problems. The first time it froze, I removed all traces of LW files then reinstalled; LW worked perfectly for about 2 weeks then problems again. This time, I could sometimes get the program working if I started LW then immediately clicked on the task bar when the main screen had loaded randomly choosing different tabs such as Options. Keeping the program 'busy' in this way worked yesterday when I tried. I had a stable connection, really fast searches and lightning download speeds. Once I'd finished my session, I closed LW, restarted the PC and opened LW to check if the problem had resolved itself; no program froze 6 times 6.
Your help would be much appreciated.

I have exactly the same problem. I only just installed Limewire as I've not used it in ages. I installed to my wired desktop using WinXP and it froze. Installed it to my wireless laptop using Win7 and it froze again. Just sounds like crap to me.
