Default LimeWire automaticalls starts up, even after being closed

What the hell. I've been using LimeWire for years, never had a virus or bug problem untill I did the latest update. Since I've downloaded their latest version, it continually opens itself. I exit it, then less than 30 seconds later it's opening itself back up without any input from me. I've tried a virus search, tried changing preferances, tried uninstalling and reinstalling... HELP!! I love my LimeWire, but only when it's under my control as to when it opens and closes...

The usual culprit is a virus. Are you able to open your task manager(Ctrl+Alt+Delete)?

Try the fix in this thread(Try it first): To fix the limewire keeps popping up / no taskmanager bug do the following

You can also try downloading AVG(free), update it, and scan your computer: AVG Free Advisor: AVG Anti-Virus Free. We've had luck with it cleaning some other viruses.
