Unhappy The notorious LimeWire Problem...

Well it started a couple of days ago when after i closed LimeWire it popped up again not five seconds later. So i closed it and the same thing happened. This repeated about four times when i got so fed up i just un-installed the program. So thinking that the problem was over i re-installed it and the problem persisted. So i un-installed it again. Then i started getting a little pop up window from Java saying that files were missing from limewire or something and to go the lime wire support thing or whatever. I didnt do that. So today today tried deleting all LimeWire related files and it wouldnt let me. Then i again tried to reinstall the program. This time when i was installing it it said that LimeWire couldnt be installed becuase the program was still running. So i tried to open up the task manager to end any lime wire processes, but the problem is that Task Manager wouldnt open. I tried opening up TM any way i could and still nothing. So i did some research and found this site. I did and ewido scan but the results were waaaaayy too long to put on here, but what should i be looking for to delete?

oh yeah my computer is working alot better now because i downloaded Windows Defender from the microsoft site, AVG Free AntiVirus, and the trial for Zone Labs Security, but i just downloaded a key from limewire so now i have full ver. but that combination is really doing my computer good. its much better than norton, all that ever did was slow my comp down.
