Problems caused by Limewire?
 
Since downloading Limewire I have experienced unwanted programs on my computer that seem to be causing problems. The Isearch toolbar is one of them. I can't get it off my IE. I have started getting popups though I have popup blocker, when I "x" out of websites the bottom of the page says "about blank". It won't respond and I have to end the page through the program manager. None of this happened before LW. Anyone else having similiar problems or know what I can do to get rid of them?

Thanks for the reply. It seems the spyware blocker that my ISP provides wasn't picking everything up. I was running the scans and deleting but it was still there. I downloaded Spybot and my problems have seemed to dissappear. I still get an occasional popup that my popup blocker is supposed to be blocking but I may just have to modify my settings to fix that. Thanks again
