Easy there, Fuzzie1... You're risking your hair going straight !

I'm only trying to help to clarify the problem.
I do not use LimeWire and I have no 'axe to grind' here for them.

But, I've been involved with Gnutella for quite a while (and long ago on a faraway planet used LW) and I cannot think of any client that would survive 1 month if they were bundeling the stuff you're describing and finding.

It must be there from something(s) else.

I'm sure that Peerless and trap_jaw4 and many others will back me up on this when I say that it is not coming from LimeWire...
NOT 149 instances... !!!

I am not familiar with the efficacy of PestPatrol... I use Adaware 6 Pro... Have you tried any other detection/removal apps ?
btw... I have used numerous other "adware/spyware" tools and can definitely say that, as with Lavasoft Adaware, the freebie versions normally do NOT perform anywhere near the same 'depth' as the purchased versions.
Just a tip.

Promise you that no one takes your problem lightly.
There will be some resolution to it, just hang in there, huh ?
