Limewire pro and java problem


I've installed the latest version of java and then purchased the lastest rpm of limewire pro. After trying to install the rpm version, I got a message saying that it needed j2re or whatever so that the program can install. I already have java installed so why am I getting this message? Is there a solution?

Funny thing. Since I had the rpm to limewire pro, all I did was extract the contents of the rpm to a folder I named, Limewire Pro. Then found the file named runlime.sh and clicked on that. The program launched and everything was fine after that. Don't know if it will work for other people, but it did work for me.
