Hi. Please don't get mad at LimeWire. Uninstall LimeWire. And go to java.com and install java. After it finished installing go to limewire.com and download it again. Reply back to tell us how it goes. And please remove your email. Thank you.

When you do reinstall Java & LW, make sure to use the offline installers. For Java, use the JRE offline installer & remove your current Java version before you install the new one
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp

Before you reinstall LW, delete LW's preferences folder. See point 3 below. If you've used much older versions of LW in the past, there might be a prefs folder in point 2's location as well...check both.
Fixes for LimeWire

Also try changing compatibility (point 5 above).
