Stops Installing at Steps 6 and 7
 
I've downloaded limewire, but then when i go to open it, it asks if i want it in english, what internet i use, if i want it to start automatically and stuff like that. but when it gets to the point (steps six and seven) that i should take down all of my firewalls, there is no button to press on the window to go any further than that. i tried to just let limewire load still, because it was loading the whole time and seemed like it would load. but it didnt even after almost an hour. so i'm not quite sure what to do because i cant get past the point where it wants the firewalls down, which i have done. i took them all down and then intstalled it, to see what would happen, but the same thing happened. so i'm not quite sure what to do!
any help would be apprectiated. i really wanna get some songs off of there!
thanks!

Uninstall LW and all Java versions on your system. Reboot and then download the JRE offline installer of the newest Java version from here:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp
Install it and reboot again, then reinstall LW.

Please help me,
Thanks.

The question is how you have installed the newest version. The way I have explained? If so, then you''' have to give us some more information about what happens exactly that causes you a problem. Otherwise we have to use our cristal ball to figure it out........

Not the same way
 
I haven't installed the newest version like you said. I tried but my computer refused to delete it. So I install the newest version before uninstalling the other one.
I hope you understand my english because I don't speak very well.
Thank you.

The question is, would you be able to uninstall it now? Then reboot, then reinstall? Of course, while uninstalling there should be NO program running that uses Java. I also reckon uninstalling LW as well. And then rebooting and then starting with Java installation, rebooting, LW installation, rebooting again...

I tried again and I succeeded to install it exactly like you explained. But it still doesn't work. My firewall autorizes limewire to conect so I don't understand why it doesn't work.
Thank you
