I know it is Limewire fault because I made several tests and all the times, Mcafee visrusscan crashed right after installing Limewire. The most annoying part of the problem is that if I try to reinstall Virusscan, the installation crashes with MSIEXEC.EXE, that MS program is modified by Limewire. The only solution I have found so far is a clean installation of Windows NT and all software and not to use Limewire... I still use Limewire and Norton Antivirus. |
Sue The Bastards I think there is a class action suit in this. The discovery process is a wonderfull thing ... unless you have something to hide. |
Decline bundled software during Limewire install I have three systems running here in my home - Win 98 SE with Mcafee & Limewire 2.0.2 Win2K with Mcafee & Limewire 2.2.4 PRO Win2k with Norton & Limewire 2.3 beta I have experienced none of the problems mentioned in this thread. The only thing I might be doing different is I decline to install the junkware (Gator etc.) during the LIMEWIRE installation. I suspect this other software is the root of the problem. As I understand it Limewire itself is well behaved but the ad-on stuff that is bundled with the Limewire installer is really a bunch of spyware that DOES change your registry and DOES install some new DLLs etc. While I don't know for a fact I suspect this other software probably is a source of revenue for Limewire. As you will note I popped for the $8.50 for my primary system for the ad-free version of Limewire. I concur with others that Adaware by Lavasoft (free version) will remove most of this crapware... I use it on the three systems of mine... and almost daily find Cydor and Double-Click stuff stuck onto my system by unscrupulous vendors. |
