Those files are virus. The general recommendation is to stay away from all files less than 2 MB (2,000 KB) in size. Almost all small files are virus or other spam. I would recommend registering at Norbie's site & follow his directions & he will help get rid of those files & get your computer back to normal; NorbiesWorld (click on link)

LimeWire is not Adware!!! If you have an anti-adware program that thinks LW has adware, then it's not so good is it now!

Except One,s For Anti-Spy And The Other One Is For Anti-Virus And They Work Great. Also Try Windows Defender (Beta 2). It,s A Great Help. P.S. Try To Run Complete System Scans Every Day On Both Software,s, They Usually Both Run For About An Hour Or So, But It,s Worth It. Just Be Patience. |

Just don't use pest patrol! It says p2p programs are bad. And it tells you to delete stuff that isn't even on your computer. That is what I call lazy developers that can't even make a decent program.
