I have the same problem, I have done everything and there are no worms in my computer. This is definitely something to do with limewire.. Have tried many things but every time I exit limewire it pops back up.. Really annoying.. Any suggestions??
Thanks!

I too have the restarting and config problems.
Running Windows XP (media edition)
LW 4.14.10 pro
Java 1.6.0_03
Norton Firewall & virus (up to date)

I have tried BFU, ran Norton several times, did clean out a "downloader"
Tried different version of Java (as recommended in forum)
Still having problems shutting down LW
Also when I tried configuring LW the option menu flashes and disappears after one second. (Have tried the delete lime wire folder solution but it keeps re-appearing)

Also discovered the dreaded '/ folder and deleted the files through Dos prompt option.

Never had any problems with older versions of Limewire pro.

Download AVGfree AV, update it & then scan your computer...there's' a link for download in this thread: tools/options

That AV found the trojan which was causing the problems with options for the original poster. See whether that also fixes the popping up problem for you.

If not, look at Stew61's posts here in this thread...he did a system restore after using the BFU. Give that a try. If things are still bad, go to one of the malware removal sites listed in post #2 of this thread.
