Q: LimeWire starts all by itself without me even clicking the icon to open it! When, I close it, it opens up again. Does my LimeWire have a mind of its own? A: Yes, LimeWire is a sentient being. Just kidding! You have probably been infected with a worm. There is a worm called "Alcra" that has been circulating among Windows systems. It spreads by launching LimeWire so that other users on the network can download infected files on to their computers and continue to spread the worm to yet other computers. Please upgrade your virus definitions so that it can be detected and removed from your computer. Due to the speed at which new strains are released, your anti-virus software may not be able to detect it. In that case, you would either have to remove the worm manually or submit it to the manufacturer of your anti-virus software so that new virus definitions can be created.
