LIME WIRE INSTALLATION

Guest

Hello
I have been using Lime Wire, and up until yesterday, have not had a problem
with it, then it has gotten where when I log off and log back on again, all
lists of searches I was doing has vanished.
Previously, the lists for searches were still there. I tried to uninstall it
yesterday to see if that would correct that, but when I went to reinstall it,
it will not install. It goes through the motions, but gets stuck with
"Loading User Interface", and the only way to clear that is to log off and
log back on again. I have worked with this for 2 days, but nothing works ...
none of the versions will not install either. I use Zone Alarm Pro, but I
have made the appropriate settings for the firewall, and those indicated by
Lime Wire. I went into the Zone Alarm, and everything for Lime Wire is "all
go"... but installation gets stuck just like before. Can someone help me with
this ?? Is there any further info I need to try to give?? --
I forgot to mention that as the program is trying to start, it shows the
icon for Lime Wire, and flashes .. "Loading User Interface", and no matter
how long I let it go, it never changes. I can't get on the program to try for
the support options, and I have tried all versions through Google .. and I'm
still "googled out"
Also, even when I uninstall the program, it still keeps the icon on the
screen, with the "Loading User Interface", and it's at this point where I
have to close down to get it out when starting back up again.
Has me very puzzled and frustrated.
Thanks for any assistance or suggestions.

Did you log in as the Administrator of your computer when you installed it?

If you don't have rights to install you may see this behavior

Hi Danny ... thanks for your response.
Yes, I'm the administrator and the only user on the pc. I just can't figure
it out.
One thing I've noticed from the Task Manager, the CPU stays at 100%, and
everything is either stalled, or slowed down while the Lime Wire is "doing
its weired behavior.
I've scanned for viruses, for spyware and adware, I've optimized and
defragmented.
I would go to sharezza, but the Lime Wire just works so much better.
Any further thoughts ?
Thanks ... Amber

You might try installing it again. If/when it bombs out, right click on my
computer and select manage
Expand the event viewer in the resulting display and check for error
messages in the application and system logs around the time you did the
install.

Or you could go here :
http://www.limewire.com/english/content/support.shtml

try their latest version or check with their support.
