Problem:

I installed the newest version of Limewire and a reinstalled Java and everything checked out fine until I tried to start up Limewire. The window with the Limewire logo pops up and at the bottom, the percentage loads but it suddenly stops at 12% (Loading HTML Engine...) and freezes. The LW icon isn't in the taskbar and it doesn't show up in the Task Manager either when I press Ctrl+Alt+Delete. I've done this dozens of times and it's still frozen! Help please!
