i am having trouble with limewire it won't stop opening i have tryed all the tricks and looked thoo all the threads about the same problum i have even deleted it compleatly off my comp. and it is still trying to open throo java normaly i shut limewire off cus it makes lag on my computer so i just download and shut it off but now it is opening itself i have even scaned my computer multiple times with up to date virus scaners and terminated every virus i had (3) and it just keeps opening

i am having problems ever since i opened up a corrupted file from limewire..limewire will start up automatically and wont stop no matter how many times i exit from it..also its messing up my computer a bit as well...i tried to uninstall it but it says the installer i am trying to use is corrupted or incomplete...and i might need to contact the owner for a new copy...why cant i just delete it and start again???? what do i do now?

If your computer is infected, uninstalling LW won't do any good. The virus remains. You can uninstall LW but will still get errors popping up.
Please look at post #2 of this thread.

i use ad awere and spy bot and i sandwitch them when i scan my comp. like ad awere spy bot ad awere or the other way around

Well you can ad-aware and Spybot as much as you like, but just to prove us wrong, try this fix. Then afterwards you can say hah I still got a problem (...or can you?) :wink:

This is the reason there are so many viruses on the network...It's just plain ignorance....

13LOOD RA!N,
It's good that you got rid of it!!
If Spybot & Ad-Aware are the only security you're using, you should think about getting an AV program as well. Both of those are very good for getting rid of spy/adware & most of us here use them but I think you also need a dedicated AV. There are some good free ones around. Check the link below, it gives a further link to some free AVs
Antivirusprotection and so on :wink:

I cannot download any files,plus Limewire keeps telling me that my URL is not right,,,I have paid for Limewire pro,now I expect it to work!!!!!!!!
