That won't be LW's fault. It could be anything from a virus to an obsolete graphics card driver to ...

1. Check your computer over with an anti-virus app & anti-spy & addware apps. Make sure you have anti-virus softw. & http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/ & also http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html & a free one for av: http://security.symantec.com/sscv6/h...nt=true&bhcp=1

2. Registry cleaner & LW repair suggestions: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=34102

3. Do a computer mainenance check & defragment your HDD.

4. Check with your graphics card website to make sure your drivers are up to date.

I would uninstall LimeWire then do as LotR suggests. Run ad-aware, spybot, anti-virus, and a registry cleaner. Then do disk cleanup and disk deframentor.

By uninstalling LimeWire 1st you are removing any links that have been created to LimeWire causing your problem. This will make it easier for the programs mentioned above to find. This was probably caused by some other malicious program or a registry entry that was done without your knowledge.

Then reinstall a clean version of LimeWire from here: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml

Good luck
