virus!?!?!?
 

I was downloadeing when limewire all of a sudden shutdown and now I cant open it and I cant open the limewire folder, or delete it, or right click it or anything. if I try it just gives me that windows error window. which is bullsh*t. any one know how I can fix this?

please help me.

What does the Windows error say? Have you tried restarting your computer to see if LW works then? How many files were you downloading at once when LW crashed?

windows explorer

Have you been using LW for a while without a problem, or have you just installed it?

Iv been useing it for years. this is the second serious problem its caused me.

Do you scan downloaded files with your AV before opening? I'd follow Grandpa's advice & go to see Norbie. He'll help you to fix things up & it's all free. Follow Grandpa's link within the thread I posted, it has a link to Norbie's site.

I never opend it. I never even finished downloading the file and all of a suden it shut down. and crap started.

how do I contact these people.

It might've been a file you'd downloaded earlier, don't think it could've been the one you were downloading at the time.

Just go here
