Auto Connecting issue
 

I would like to know if anyone can tell me why all of a sudden my limewire basic auto connects to the internet. At first it it would connect when I chose but I tried to download a couple of random "programs" and now it autoconnects. Can this be fixed?

Do you mean that LW keeps opening & refusing to stay closed? Or is it actually downloading things at random, when you haven't chosen to download anything?

Auto Startup
 

It's a brand new computer. Yes exactly, What happens is I shut down the LW and it just restarts but it's not downloading. If I had pending items I'm sure it would.... I think it may have installed something to keep it running at a constant...

You have a virus. Probably from downloading programs & not scanning the files with your AV before opening them. Program files are often infected. See the sticky below
WARNING: Viruses on the network you should be aware of

Try the easy fix mentioned at the end of point 2, it's worked for a lot of people. Otherwise, see point 5 for links to help sites. Norbiesworld is a good one & has helped a lot of LW users.

Always make sure that you're using a good AV. Keep it updated & scan downloaded files before opening them.

Thank you!
 

And that's why you are a pro!

It worked just like you stated and I'll be more cautious.
