thanks Limewire for dropping this virus into my computer.

warning: Norton Antivirus will not block this virus.

I've used SuperAntiSpyware when my computer was being attacked by multiple viruses at a time. It killed everything and saved my computer.

Just go to SUPERAntiSpyware.com - AntiAdware, AntiSpyware, AntiMalware! and download it. It's much better than Spybot.

I'll try it, thanks!

No problem :) Let us know if it works out!

Infected files are shared throughout the gnutella network. It's not LW's fault. LW is just a client that allows you to connect to the network & download files from other computers (peer to peer).

Check out these links for info about files to avoid. There are also links to alternative AV programs.
