Everytime i close limewire, it re-opens itself, meaning my computer is very slow and stops me from playing games. Can anyone help me stop this ?

It's a virus. There's info here
LimeWire continually popping up

and here
Viruses you should be aware of

Within the second thread is a link to norbiesworld. If you go to his site & register (it's free) he'll help you get rid of the virus. Always keep your AV program updated & scan a file before you open it!

Liamz you haven't deleted virus by uninstalling Limewire. I went to the first post in this thread and as advised, visited www.norbiesworld.com, followed their instructions and then reinstalled limewire.The instructions were detailed and many but well worth the effort. Pc is running faster than ever.
