FIX for Limewire not opening!

[wavp]

I had trouble getting limewire to open, I would double click and nothing happened.

But now I have fixed the problem, so those who are having this problem, follow these instructions:

1) Go to the Control Panel and click on Add and Remove Programs
2) Uninstall Java 2 Runtime Enviroment
3) Click on this link and download J2SE v 1.4.2_05 JRE

J2SE v 1.4.2_05 JRE

After clicking on Agree, click on Windows Offline Installation, Multi-language (j2re-1_4_2_05-windows-i586-p.exe, 14.91 MB)

4) Install this and reboot
5) Start up limewire.

Hope this works anyone who has this problem

I've spent hours uninstalling and I downloaded the J2SE V1.4.2 95 JRE and Limewire still doesn't open. It stays active on the tool bar.

I tried your download fix and Limewire still doesn't open.

try launching by clicking on Limewire.jar instead of Limewire.exe. Works like a charm for me.
