Default Limewire 4.16.7 won't re-install

Hello: noticed, yesterday, that once connected only able to get 1 bar and that I now am hidden behind a firewall. Temporarly disconnected firewall and avg yet firewall indication is still there and bar is still at 1. Removed limewire 4.16.7 and tried to re-install but now it won't install. Keep getting notice that file is corrupt, tried to re-install as per instructions but that doesn't work.
Using Windows Xp SP2
Does anybody what's happening or have a fix ??

Tks

Hi...

When you say, "As per instructions...", does that mean you have tried this > If LimeWire Will Not Load ?

Also, please check this > System details - Help us help you > Provide these details when you post !

Question LimeWire Basic 4.16.7

I am trying to put limewire basic on my other laptop and it is telling me that the program is corrupted and can not download. What do I need to do so I can get the free basic instead of paying for the pro right now?

uninstall LW via Start menu -> Programs -> LW -> Uninstall.Download and run this utility: (http://www.ccleaner.com/)Now try this link by zab (http://www9.limewire.com/download/LimeWireWin-full.exe) if that link doesn't work try this by lotr (http://www.gnutellaforums.com/window...installer.html) Check that you have Java installed. some versions of Java run better on some people's computers than other versions.
