Install Java first. You can either try the latest version (I have this one & LW's working fine): Java SE Downloads
or try this older version, which has worked well for lots of people: Archive: Download Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5.0 Update 11
Whichever Java version you use, download the JRE offline installer & remove any other Java versions before installing another one.
People using LW 5 won't be able to use Java 5 - you'll need to install Java 6.
Now reinstall LW: http://www9.limewire.com/download/LimeWireWin-full.exe

Default Same problem, any other ideas?
I have a brand new laptop, the most recent Java and am still getting this same problem. Have googled it as well as searched here, to no avail. Could this be a particular vista setting that needs tweaking?

Now install LW & make sure that you've used the offline installer. When you're at the LW site & click to download, cancel the dialog box that pops up. Now use the option to download the offline installer.
Thanks a million - had the same problem as Noobster
