Invalid Signature
 
I have tried everything Ive read here, but to no avail. Every time I go to install Limewire I get the message "Windows has detected a problem, the program you are trying to install does not have a valid digital signature." Can anyone help?

I use Windows XP Service pack 3

I downloaded the 4.18 version, it appeared to install, but when all installation was complete, I clicked on the icon and nothing happens!! or I get a blank screen for a second or two, then its back where I started. I never had this problem.

1. Add/Remove control panel & remove all previous Java versions.

2. Start menu -> Programs -> LimeWire -> Uninstall.

3. Run this utility: Crap Cleaner

4. Reinstall java using only the OFFLINE java version installer: Download Java software from Sun Microsystems

5. Might be wise to delete the previous LW prefs folder:
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.)
VISTA users see: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/genera...der-vista.html

6. Install LW using this version: http://www9.limewire.com/download/LimeWireWin-full.exe

I am also having problems with it, i did everything it says and also used the back up file, and still nothing at all then they send me a email saying to provide them with a e-mail address that can handle attatchments, like yahoo. well guess what my e-mail address is yahoo. now what.. I feel like i am getting the run around.

My IT people have resolved it. They say there was a virus that corrupted the registry and hence any exe file was rejected.

My problem is similar to all the others. Got a new computer w/ Vista. When I try to download Limewire I open the containing folder. It has 2 files in it for Limewire. One ia an application file and the other is a PART. The Part gets a few bytes in it but the application never gets any even tho the download screen says everything id OK. When the download supposedly finishes the 2 files for Limewire just disappear from the containing folder. Any ideas? Old version worked fine on old computer w/XP.
