Limewire won't open after installation
 
I've tried installing and un-installing Limewire about 5 times, each time it says that limewire is installed but when I try to open it nothing happens.

I'm on Windows XP, i've tried adding it to my firewall, changing the compatibility and I've tried two different versions of limewire.

Anyone have any idea what I can do?

I Take it all you people are on windows xp

I have had the same problem, programs not starting exct when you click on them, what progs are you running at the same time, windows xp says it will run everything, but you know as well as I do that is s***, this usually means the computer has no resoucres left to run anything, try shutting down some programs, also it could mean the program is conflicting with something else ie the drivers for the programs are conflicting with other drivers
