Do you have any other p2p sharing programs installed on your computer? Just guessing but there might be a clash of magnets.

I'd suggest uninstalling & installing again. To uninstall, go to Start menu>Programs>LW>Uninstall

Try that 1st. If still problem then get back to us. Also, use the offline installer.

You don't use the add/remove prog control panel for LW. You can only remove it the way I suggested. Not since about LW 4.3 could you use the add/remove control panel to remove LW. But, you will also find an uninstaller within the LW program folder.
