 Download.com rating dropping like a stone. Limewire must be aware of this trojan. It took me two days to track down what had happened to my system (windows XP). It wasnt until I did a roll back I realised that it was Limewire 2.02 that had installed a few extra 'features'. One was 'backdoor.trojan' that run from a file called 'explorer.exe' that sits in a new explorer folder. The other was a program called bargain.exe. Not sure if it'd always been there but this thing appeared to be adding pop up adverts in to IE. DO NOT INSTALL LIMEWIRE. IF YOU HAVE THEN ON XP ROLL BACK TO BEFORE IT WAS INSTALLED.
