I have a problem, that Limewire starts up (not connecting) when I turn on the computer. Have looked through the options, although none allow me to disable this. If anyone can help me out, it'll be appreciated.
Thanks |

In LW go to Tools>Options>+Advanced>System Startup> then untick the box that says "Run on System Startup" then click apply. After that it shouldn't run until you start it manually.
![]() Also there's another option for connect on System startup. In LW Tools>Options>Connections> then tick or untick the box per your preference>click apply.

When you shut LW down, does it start back up by itself? because if it does then it's probably a virus. If not then I don't know

Another suggestion would be to open the system configuration utility.
On your desktop go to Start>Run>type in "msconfig">ok, then when the Sys Config Utility comes up click on the "startup" tab then look for LW in there and disable it. Be careful you don,t disable the wrong thing.
