My computer also works slowly when running Limewire, but it's not because of a virus. It is because it has its years and, besides, Limewire is a java application and takes a lot of the computer resources.

If you want to get rid of the spyware you might have on your pc, I recommend you Ad Aware: http://www.lavasoft.de

Limewire used to install some, but after 4.0 it does not anymore.
