downloading problems
 
I tried to download limewire on my computer using mozilla firefox. It said downloading, but the visual progress bar never appeared. It just stayed like this for about 10 minutes. So I hit cancel and exited firefox. Then on my desktop there was an icon as shown in the screen shot below.

When I clicked on it, I was denied access. I tried deleting it and was told it was being used by another program or person. From there i began to become very frustrated and tried every way possible to delete the icon of my desktop. I was able to by archiving it and making it a read-only file. I then dragged it to the recycle bin and it disappeared but I still got the message about it being used by another person or program. I have searched for it on my computer and can't find any visible traces of it. I have tried to redownload limewire but it says that the file already exists proving that the white icon labeled limewirewin still exists. I have tried saving it to a new location, but the download just stops at 3 percent and then freezes. I’m really at a dead end here. I hope you can help me.

try CTRL+ALT+DELETE and go to processes and chekc if u see the program running and and click on it the end process if it fail that mean that you user account is limited and to change that u have to go to user accounts on control panel.

there are 3 reasons for this error message.
1. you or your system does have the file open
2. some software (eg. limeware) or hidden software (eg. a virus) has the file open.
3. the system failed to close the file (rebooting PC resolves this)
