Limewire and many other programs use java, a programming language. You need to have Java Runtime Environment installed on your computer to use java applications like limewire. It sounds to me like java isn't working properly, or it was never installed(or was uninstalled inadvertently)
If you or someone else never installed java, download and install it here:

If you previously installed java, reinstall it. Do this by going to start>run. Type:
appwiz.cpl
Find "Java SE runtime environment", and any updates for it, and click remove. If it asks you to restart your computer, do it. Then install java from:

To be safe, reinstall limewire(uninstall from appwiz.cpl and download and install from limewire.com). I'm pretty sure this will fix it. If it doesn't, you can do as the person below me says and use a different application. Here's a list of applications that use the same network(and so can download the same exact files):

I had that same problem! I have no idea what caused it but for the longest time it wouldn't let me open it. I think I even reinstalled it and it STILL wouldn't, so I switched to morpheus. Then my dad wiped out my computer and when I reinstalled it, it worked fine then. :/ I know this doesn't help you much but maybe you'll have better luck than I did if you uninstall it, restart your computer (shut it down, then turn it back on), then try installing it again :/
Goodluck!
