I do not advise Bearshare. From previous experiences I have discovered once uninstalled, it still accesses your computer.

I too have this problem, I have uninstalled Limewire, and now a Javascript report starts up once every 3 minutes saying:

I use avast! on access scanner (to stop incoming virus' on the spot), and I have ran the avast! resident scanner time and time again. It did discover a couple of virus', but nothing that caused this problem.
