Limewire won't open

[gtoman]

I got a new pc with an AMD 64bit cpu running xp home. i downloaded limewire 4.12.0? beta version. anyway, it won't open. i went into the start programs and tried to open it there then into program files and chose a few different files in there to open it and it won't! is limewire setup to run on the 64bit platform or could the problem be a conflict with antivirus or spyware programs?
thanks,Jim

Do you still need this thing?
Windows AMD64 Platform - J2SE(TM) Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 7 (https://sdlc3a.sun.com/ECom/EComActionServlet;jsessionid=1D04915C112F0A7EAB601 6B4D65D6A3B#)

If that link doesn't work ( due to typical Sun paranoia about filthy foreigners getting free software for no money down ;] )
This link will get you close enough to find your way: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp

I just recently had that problem..
what i did was i right clicked on the icon and pressed "open file location"
and then i scrolled down (there are a bunch of icons in this folder,btw)
and double clicked on "Limewire On Startup" and it came up.
I hope i helped.
