Unable to download
 

I recently deleted some dodgy looking registry entries one of which was called p2pnetwork.exe

Since then I have been unable to d/l on limewire. I can connect to the network and search and once I try download something it says 'connecting' and the immediately says 'waiting on busy hosts' It sometimes connects for like 1 second and downloads a tiny part of the file but then switches back to busy hosts.

I tried allowing the appropriate ports and ip addy on my firewall but it doesnt make any difference.

When it stopped working I tried uninstalling and installing the update version. I have also tried deleting all the limewire settings and registry entries and installing from scratch but to no avail.

Anyone have any ideas? They would be much appreciated.

possible virus
 

p2pnetwork.exe search on google identifies as a possible virus called "W32/Rbot-ACZ" according to Sophos:

others have identified it as malware/spyware/etc...reccommend do a google...some freeware detected on my system...spybot S&D found it and isloated it, but was not blacklisted by spybot...hacked out of regestry myself, but no reccommended for everybody to try

Thats waht I though
 

Yeah I figured it wasn't good so I haacked it out as well. Maybe I hacked out something else I wasn't supposed to that made limewire stop working, but I thought reinstall should fix that.

Thx for yur help anyway
