I, too, have just run into the same problem as the person whom started this thread, KGUN - exact same thing. Uninstalling, reinstalling, upgrading... none of it works. It just won't start - 'freezes on the blank Laguages window... and in some instances, the process won't kill in TaskManager... it just stays running, and even prevents XP Pro from shutting down.

This is the only post I've found ANYWHERE about this problem. It appears LOTR seems not to take it too seriously, as if it'll take care of itsself with a few more installation attempts, and then reminds KGUN not to post on this issue twice. That really helps, LOTR.

I've re-installed both Java and Limewire about 10 times... No change.

I am using an NVIDIA GeForce 5600 Ultra 128mb video card with the latest drivers installed, so it has nothing to do with the "ATI Radeon series of drivers".

Serious issue... so it looks like I won't be using their product anytime soon. Their loss.
