LW 4.05 refused to install on my Win2000 + Sun Java 1.5.0-beta2 setup. Does 4.07 support the new java? When is support for 1.5 expected?

P.S. I sent an email about this to "Limewire Pro Support" but never got a response. grrr

We have succesfully used LimeWire with Java 1.5. Can you try LimeWire 4.0.7 and see if it works? If it fails, what message does it give? Thanks.

Yes! 4.07 worked. You must not have needed to change that much if a minor point update fixed the incompatibility? Thanks for the good advice!

We updated the LimeWire.exe to check for some more versions of Java to use. We're hopefully even planning to have LimeWire 4.2 have a brand new exe that will register as "LimeWire" instead of "java" in Process Explorer, so that things like firewalls and whatnot can be told to give "LimeWire" access instead of "java".
