Thank you for your help, and Phex downloaded fine, but I'm really not sure I like the set up. When I did an audio search for an artist, I couldn't tell in the list what any of the songs were like you can on limewire...you can call me picky if you'd like, but seeing how I am not all that tech savvy, I would prefer to know which song/artist I am trying to download.

Do you have any other ideas. Is there any way at all that I can get back to Limewire??? It gets all the way to the point (when I'm downloading limewire) where it says "unpacking files", then I get the "installation is corrupted" message.

Hmmm...I think you need to start fresh....Maybe when you uninstalled LW a few files where left behind somewhere...

The correct way to uninstall is Start > All programs > Limewire/Uninstaller

Use your computer's search to look for all files & folders with limewire in the name. If you can't delete them, reboot into safe mode & then try. If they still won't delete, try one of the tools here...
Incomplete Download File won't delete at all.

Once you have it uninstalled use this link to reinstall...
