Limewire Keeps Popping Up!
 
Limewire takes up a lot of my bandwidth etc. so i generally don't keep it running unless i'm downloading something. For some reason, it's started booting up without warning. I turn on my computer, and Limewire starts up. I shut Limewire down, and several seconds later, it starts up again.
I've had to uninstall Limewire to keep my computer from lagging out too much while i do other stuff.
how do i stop it from doing that?

Maybe your computer's infected.
Are you also not able to access LW's tools > options? Sometimes that problem goes along with the popping up thing.

Have a look at the thread below for a few different fixes to try. If nothing helps, there are links to sites that offer specialised help for malware issues;)

If you can't access LW's options either, download AVG Free AV. Update AVG & then scan your computer. There's a link for download in the thread below.
