Virus/Tracking Device here?
 
I've just canceled a download and wanted to delete the file from my incomplete folder. When I do this a window pops up saying that the file is being used by another person or program. I use windows btw.

Do you suspect that there is some sort of tracking device on this file sending information out. I also tried restarting my comp and deleting it.

Do this and see if it helps, turn off Limewire and shut it down. Restart it but don't connect it to the internet. Goto you Incomplete files and delete it (if it's still there).
Follow me: Click: Start/My Computer/ Local Disk (C) (how it is on my pc)/ Program Files/Limewire/Incomplete/ then delete the file if it is still there!
Hope this helps!!!

Thanks for the reply...

I dled some other files as well and this occurs even after the download has finished. I don't want to delete this file, I'm just afraid that theres a tracking device on here since its being used by another program/person. What do you guys think?
