Well, we found out for sure that it's not a Virus! And after waiting 5 hours for the virus scan and spyware to get done, I went to bed for the night, and started my computer, and the songs that I downloaded last night, turned into Zip files again! I think I might have to just say screw limewire and find a new download program. But I don't know!

Disable Norton all together and download AVG it's free and then run a scan...
As far as I know AVG is the only AV that picks this virus up....

Then you can uninstall AVG and enable Norton again....Just don't run 2 AV's at the same time...
