can't install LimeWire .rpm on Mandriva 10.2 (2005 LE)


on my desktop, i click "LimeWireLinux.rpm"

a window pops up that says:
RPM installation
You are about to install the following software package on your computer:

/home/ozzy/desktop/LimeWireLinux.rpm

You may prefer to just save it. What is your choice?
Install Save Cancel

and i click Install
and another windows pops up:
RPM installation
Some package requested cannot be installed:
LimeWire-free-4.8.1-0.i386 (due to unsatisfied jre[>=1.41])
Continue?
Abort Ok

and I click OK

and yet another window:
RPM installation
Installation finished
Done

so i click Done

but I can't run the program

what do i do???

thanks
