Hey Birdy thanks for the quick response.

I'm running WXP and on this particular machine and never previously installed LimeWire. The message pops up right when I double click on the installer and click run. I installed the latest version of Java and downloaded the cleaner but this machine has a clean install and doesn't have any crap or spyware on it. I am downloading from the LimeWire site and tried everything you mentioned and still can't get it to install. Same error message.

Please advise.

Does your XP account have administrator privileges (control panel > user accounts > you'll see there whether your account is a Computer Administrator)?

Did you try running in compatibility mode for both Win 2000 & NT?

I spoke a little too soon yesterday. I rebooted my machine after I installed the latest Java and ran the crap cleaner and was able to successfully install it. Problem now is when I try to launch LimeWire, I get the same error message. I'm doing all of this logged in as administrator. Pretty Weird
