Sounds like an issue with the Java.
Uninstall LW and all Java versions on your computer. Go here:http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp and download the JRE offline installer 1.5.0_07.
Install it and then re-install LW and see if it works.

I assume that you have a normal standard 32 bit plattform, rather than a hightech 64 bit one....
So, look at my screen shots.

I'm having the same problem with my computer, but reinstalling Java isn't doing anything. I've downloaded new Java JREs from 2 different sites and I've deleted LW completely and reinstalled it several times, but nothing works.

The normal procedure would be to uninstall LW and uninstall all versions of Java from your system, then install the JRE version of Java (1.5.0_07) with the offline installer and then re-install LW.

I did exactly that but LW still won't run. I'm guessing something else is wrong with my comp that I don't know about yet, but I appreciate the help.

It is possible that some anti spyware program or anti virus program prevents LW from starting up (some see LW as threat, though it isn't one).
Have you checked on that??
