Every time I attempt to open LW. I get this Message:One or more necessary files appear to be corrupted. This is generally caused by a corrupted installation. Followed by
com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.GUILoader$StartupFailed Exception: invalid themes.jar
at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.GUILoader.sanityCheck(G UILoader.java:267)
at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.GUILoader.load(GUILoade r.java:40)
there's alot more, just too much to list. I've tried re-installing but no dice. Please help!

First of all, install Java using the offline installer here

Now install LW using it's offline installer
http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml

See how that goes & post back if you still have problems

I've tried both windows xp installers and always get the error message from HSSS saying "error writing to temporary file."
I then tried to install the cc cleaner and a similar error message appeared.
Any help would be great. I had been able to install limewire a few months ago but had a crash last week and had to reinstall my operating system

I am having the same problem, i think it happens when my spyware blocks a certain file or sumtin still havent figured it out, but if i just reinstall it works again.. so now im trying to download from update 6 to 7 on java.. and see if that works.. cause the little java symbol pops up with that error message... i even tried to send it to limewire through bugs@limewire.com, and they dont have that email address as addressed in the prompt that pops up... someone please help us!!!

Marcus3960 & caliblue15,

caliblue, make sure LW is on the list of exceptions/allowed apps in your spyware protection. Some will see LW as a threat, even though it's not

Good try... i've tried everything...i use aol's spyware, and for some **** reason it wont let me unblock... so i'm switching to avg, but im having a problem with their installation too.... corrupted files once again.. i fixed the limewire thing so far, but downloading the offline one, so if it happes again i just download real quick, and i still have all my files... thats my qucks fix right now.. anyone have a real fix... or a way to fix my avg installiation...?

Can you disable the AOL spyware protection & see if AVG installs? A few people have had trouble with the AOL stuff. One solution was to uninstall it & then reinstall

right now im downloading the free avg.. i downloaded the non free one... finally got that one to work by deleting everything associated with grisoft.com and limewire is working so far... im going to take off aol's stuff cause it wasnt catching certain things.. and ive heard avg is tons better... so ill give that a try... i also have windows firewall... and spyware thing... i wish windows had a virus thing.. that way it was all windows and was alot easier... i also had norton before.. and that was the best thing i ever had for free.. but now i have to pay for it.. so we will see how avg does... **** dialup is slow..
