howdy ...
according the question in the first post: just jump to http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html and grab the J2SE v 1.4.2_04 JRE package. This should be a binary installer that will give you the Java-StandardEdition VM.
ad posting #2: I don't know LimeWire, but as it is Java based there might be a chance that you can add a commandline parameter that tells the app where to find the virtual machine - something like this e.g. ...
user@machine$ limewire -vm /usr/java/j2sdk1.5.0/jre/bin
If LimeWire is somewhat similar in its startup-procedure to other Java-apps (like "Eclipse" e.g.) it should tell where it was searching for the virtual-machine files.
good luck with this
