Default I need some help!!!!!!(LW keeps starting up)

Hello, I have had Limewire for quite sometime now and I have never had this problem before. Whenever I shut down Limewire, it stays shut down for like 5 minutes then starts back up again...What do I do? The only thing that has worked is I have to take it off my computer

In LW tools > options > advanced > system startup. Make sure that 'run on system startup is not ticked. If it's ticked, untick > Apply > ok.If that's not the problem, sounds like you have a worm.

Try this fix, it's worked for a lot of people.
The easy fix for Limewire popping up every few seconds (try this first)

If that doesn't help, there are links to help sites below

Always make sure that you're using a good AV program. Keep it updated & use it to scan files that you've downloaded before you open them.
