Probably a virus. See this thread, part 4. WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of!

There's a link at the bottom of that thread for NorbiesWorld, You can get free computer help at his site. Good luck.

Well, thanx. That explains why I couldnt bring up task manager.

Unfortunetly, with my normal lack of computer literacy, I have no idea what the crap is going on at Norbies World, nor how to get rid of the worm.

Well, my computer will be re-formatted soon. When it is, I wont re-install limewire, nor any other P2P program

PS A pity I do not know where the guy who wrote the Alcra virus lives... One things for sure, if I did, you would soon be reading reports of a grisly corpse strung between several trees >_<

its not limewires fault its a person who only cares about messing up computers. just watch what your downloading. you can scan files with bitzi and scan the file for viruses before you open it.so next time you will be prepared
