I have a suspicion a reboot might fix that but maybe not.
1. Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.)

2. Run this small utility: CCleaner.com

3. Download & use this version: Download ‘Other’ version & simply unzip & use!

*** How did you uninstall LW? If you used the add/remove control panel then that's why the problem. (LW should not be uninstalled using the control panel.) Answer to is basically steps 2 & 3 above. Re-installing LW will remove the previous LW at beginning of installation. Else, start menu > Programs > LW > Uninstall.

Default Limewire Installation issues

I thank 'Lord of the Rings" for his recent posting on this matter with the Limewire fix.
I have to make a comment on it though.....
95% of the computer users out there (USA & Canada)wouldn't have a clue on how to follow even these simple instructions on getting Limewire working. I know, because I deal with them on a daily basis !
AND, it seems, that the Limewire software makers know about the issue, BUT say they are 'trying' to fix it for the 'next' version(s). I like Limewire, but these program gliches are getting more than annoying, but at least the current versions are adware/spyware free!
As in my posting, I made no alterations to the program, I simply changed the video card, of all things, and it worked just fine from the original install ! I do know that there are issues with NVidia & ATI on Direct3D & OpenGL applications and believe that there is an issue with J2SE_1.4.x and newer versions with a major lot of newer NVidia cards.
I've never had a Limewire loading issue yet with any ATI card that I've ever used and/or installed !
For those who've done everything possible to get Limewire to work and can't, get your hands on an ATI card, Rage, Radeon or newer, and give it a try. Betcha it works just fine without program modding !!!

Please don't ask about getting LW Pro for free on this forum. $18.88 is a small payment for such a good app.

Most of us are happy to support the development of LW by buying Pro

i managed to get a response from limewire and guess what i was told to buy LW Pro again as my subcription has run out i thought when you bought pro you only had to buy it once you get support for six months free. but as my subcription was almost a year ago i can't download it again unless i buy it again.
