I downloaded the files and when I try to install it won't get very far because it keeps saying "Limewire cannot create uninstall information. Installation will now exit"

Try these things in this order:

1. Remove all Java versions using the add/remove control panel.

2. Install Java using the OFFLINE java installer: JRE 5.11 offline version Archive: Download Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5.0 Update 11 (Java 1.5 JRE is the final java version compatible with Windows ME.

3. Run this utility: Crap Cleaner

4. Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.)

5. Download and install this version of LW: http://www9.limewire.com/download/LimeWireWin-full.exe
