HELP!!! My Computer is broken because of Limewire...
 

I downloaded something from limewire that now makes limewire continuously start up without my permission every 20-30 seconds or so. So I deleted Limewire and now I keep getting a Java error that says:

"One or more necessary files appear to be invalid. This is generally caused by a corrupted installation. Please try downloading and installing LimeWire again. If the problem persists, please visit Lime Wire » Official Website & Free Download, BitTorrent « and click the 'Support' link. Thank you." Then, there is a field that says:

"LimeWire version 4.18.3

How do I stop this from happening?

You should scan your computer with a good, updated AV program. Check out the thread below for links to online scans & more info about the virus. Check out the fix for LW popping up!!
* WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of! *

Also more fixes in the threads below.
2 probs (LW keeps restarting & can't access options)
Starts on its own/ options folder won't open (possible fix)
installation aborts

If that doesn't help, try AVG Free AV & see whether it finds any nasties.
AVG free
Make sure to update AVG before you scan your computer.

Always make sure that you're using a good AV program. Keep it updated & use it to scan EVERY file that you download, BEFORE you open the file.

thanks!
 

AVG anti-virus worked. thank you! its crazy that people work so hard to make other people get so stressed out and possibly lose so much money and hard work.
