Hmmm, not good, you definatley have a worm, but you could very well have something else as well...

Could you disable your current Anti-Virus app and download AVG, make sure you update it and run a full system scan and see what it finds...
AVG free

If it finds a virus, follow the recommended steps that AVG gives you to get rid of it and then try the BFU fix again...

If you still have problems go to one of these sites and ask them for advice...
Bleeping Computer - Computer Help and Discussion
SpywareInfo Forum FAQ - SWI Forums
These guys are experts in this type of thing...;)

Limewire Opens Constantly, keeps trying even though uninstalled
 
I've been looking all over these forums and keep ending up back at square 1.

When I have limewire installed, it opens constantly. As soon as I close it, it opens again. From what I've found- looking up the problem online- it says I have a worm, and the reason it keeps opening on it's own is because it wants ppl to d/l things from me, and get the worm as well. No matter how many suggestions I've tried - spybot, etc virus protection things to remove the worm, none of them find it.

So I keep uninstalling limewire. But when I do that, it continues to try to open it, and gives me java errors etc, because something keeps trying to open LimeWire, but it realizes it's not there to open.

I need help!!!! There has to be a worm on my pc, it makes sense.

I have vista so some replies to these questions don't work as well for me..

HELPPPP!

Mine does that and after some advice from ET at work installed Avast and its seems to have sorted it out. Still opens on its own some times.

Unfortunately that's what I had in the first place- Avast.. and it never caught the "worm."

This is so annoying, I guess I just have to use my pc with a constant error in the background.

I've tried just about everything that everyone has suggested on here, all the Jave uninstalls and re-installs, all the offline installs, all the compatability changes, the "run as administrator" stuff, the correct uninstallations...etc etc etc. My Limewire is STILL stopping at 12%! I have a laptop with Vista on it, and Limewire USED to work on here untill recent. What am I doing wrong and what else is left to try?!?!

Try the removing and replacing the gnutella.net file...

I've searched for the Gnutella.net file, not luck finding it. Where would it be if I can't even find it when searching for it?

Polish Punk December 6th, 2007 11:46 PM

Ok, I was finally able to find, delete, and replace gnutella.net...but Limewire is still not going anywhere beyond that 12% mark.

Here's how we BOTH fixed this problem.... this may only apply to vista machines tho... sorry

We changed the shortcut to and the limewire.exe file itself both to compatibility with windows XP sp2 by left-clicking the icons and going under the compatibility tab.

Then we left clicked the shortcut and chose "run as administrator"

after doing this the program hung up at 19% and said something about a "save folder" being damaged or missing. after hitting the "OK" button on this dialog box another dialog box came up asking us to choose a folder to stand in for the "missing or damaged" saved folder...

We simply created a folder named "saved" and this solved the problem....

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!! BEEN FIGHTING THIS FOR 2 DAYS INSTALL DELETE JAVA FORUMS THEN I TRIED THIS AND IT WORKED LIKE A CHARM.
