And also, Limewire keeps logging itself on every 5 mins, I shut it down and it logs itself on again and again and again. There's no end to it.

Please help, what do I need to know. I've deleted a lot of trash from the harddisk and registry but to no avail.

Kind regards,

Kez

Sounds like a virus. Try the fix in this thread(Try it first): To fix the limewire keeps popping up / no taskmanager bug do the following

More virus info in this thread: WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of!

You can also try downloading AVG(free), update it, and scan your computer: AVG Free Advisor: AVG Anti-Virus Free. We've had luck with it cleaning some other viruses.

Thanks the vrius appears to have gone but........
 
I cannot install install AVG Free Edition build 432 due to the following error:

Local machine: installation failed
Installation:
Error: Action failed for file avgamsvr.exe: creating file....
No such file or directory


Please kindly help?

Thanks, Kez

You will have to kill the worm first as 6 Pac stated. Did you click the Blue Link he gave you to rid yourself of the bug ? After you clean your system then dn/ld AVG.

kez_moore June 17th, 2007 11:51 AM

I have cleaned the system
 
Hi. I did exactly what 2pac said (3 times in fact) and the system appears to be now clean. The taskmanager appears and Limewire doesn't keep popping up. I then downloaded AVG 7.5 again and registered it. However, it installed 50% then came up with this message:

Local machine: prepared for the installation
Actions plan:
Error: Evaluating of the short file name failed for "C:\Program Files\Grisoft\AVG7\avgfwsrv.exe".
Creating of the temporary folder "C:\Program Files\Grisoft\AVG7\avgfwsrv.exe" failed.
The system cannot find the file specified. (2) %PATH% = "C:\Program Files\Grisoft\AVG7\avgfwsrv.exe"


I have tried downloading the AVG FREE version and again after registration and 50% of installation complete it come up with this message:

Local machine: installation failed
Installation:
Error: Action failed for file avgamsvr.exe: creating file....
No such file or directory

What is the matter? What shall I do? Please help?

Kind regards

Kez

Remoc June 17th, 2007 12:00 PM

Kez, WOW I have never heard of anyone not being able to download AVG. I don't use it my self so You might go to there web site for more answers. I will continue to research this problem

Remoc June 17th, 2007 12:03 PM

Kez, Do you possibley have another antivitus running ? If so disable and then try. Can't use two at the same time, they may conflict with each other.

ejholden June 17th, 2007 04:29 PM

My ISP tech put me on to this one after I had problems with AVG ...

avast! antivirus software - computer virus, worm and Trojan protection by ALWIL Software

but, yes, you do need to either remove or disable other ani-virus programs due to in-fighting....

kez_moore June 25th, 2007 06:46 AM

Problems continue............
 
6pac's advice was very good, I got rid of the damn virus. However, Limewire still kept giving me trouble but now of a different kind!

Whenever I opened it up it literally "froze" my system and so I was unable to use other software. Limewire did work but it was very very slow and froze my system.

So I decided to change to Frostwire, thinking that that would remedy the problem. But no, same thing it freezes my system.

Please help?

Something may have gotten corrupted.

Uninstall java. With LW shut down go to the add/remove programs control panel and uninstall your current version of java. Now download and install J2SE Runtime Environment (JRE) 5.0 Update 11(use the offline installer): Archive: Download Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5.0 Update 11

Then uninstall LW. Don't use the add/remove programs to uninstall. Go to the program folder, it should be found at C:\Program Files\LimeWire\Uninstall.exe. Double click the Uninstall.exe file. That should uninstall it. Then search your hdd for limewire and delete any references. Now dl and install LW using the offline installer: Lime Wire » Download LimeWire
