you know the java error message i told you about? it keeps popping up.

the LW folder in the Start up>All Programs isn't there anymore. i was supposed to uninstall it from there but i think i've erased it.

anyway, my problem isn't restarting. rather the LW icon in the system tray piles up. there was one instance i saw 3 LW icons! it's like i turned it on 3 times! now when i noticed that i suspected so i uninstalled it using control panel>add/remove progs. of course i have to install it again. when i downloaded the same program, the free version, i started installing. then the problem started, it can't finish the installation. it hangs somewhere when its about to finish. this is where i went in circles installing/uninstalling both java & LW. and here i am posting w/u.

you know this java error message keeps interrupting while i'm typing this message. and it makes a clicking sound as if i'm accessing a link.

thanks for bearing with me.

If that error keeps popping up despite LW being uninstalled, I think you're infected.

Go back to the link that I left in post #2 & try the different fixes posted there. You'll also find linbks there to sites that specialise in help with malware removal...if you can't get things sorted, go to one of those sites & they'll help you with the problem.

Good luck!
