A problem to be solved.
 
Earlier today i went to check my "Incomplete" folder on My Documents. I was suprised to find two files inside that I was not aware of. The first file was a DAT file and was named "downloads", the second was a BAK file which was also named "downloads".

I thought that this was a file not needed so i deleted it. As soon as I did that LimeWire opened up immediatly like if I started it up, but this time it did it automatically without my permission. I tried closing it, but it kept opening up itself. Now everytime I delte it LimeWire automartically opens.

I then went back to the "Incomplete" folder to find the two files there again.

I have posted this to ask if these files were apart of your program or if it was a threat to my computer. If it is, is there anyway of removing it safely?

When LW pops up all the time, it usually means you have a virus. Here's some info:
