Default get window with nothing but code when trying to download installer

I hope someone can help me. I downloaded LimeWire for Windows before but recently uninstalled it because it seemed like it was causing all kinds of pop ups to appear (now I'm not so sure if LimeWire was the cause of this because I'm still being bombarded by pop ups) using my computer's Remove Program function. After, I keep getting a window that pops up all the time that says the LimeWire program was not downloaded properly and to try downloading it again. A friend of mine suggested I try to download LimeWire again and see if the installer program has its own uninstall program to prevent anymore error messages from popping up. Now, as soon as I click on the tab to download the installer program, I get a window that comes up with nothing but program code. I clicked on the other button for the other installer for Windows, and I get the same thing. Can anyone help me?!?!?!

Sounds more like a virus then install problem. Did Limewire by any chance keep opening after you tried to close it, and does your Task Manager work at all ?

If so then a virus it is. Check this link for tips and help to get rid of it. If all else fails then go to step 5. (Norbies World)

Viruses on network you should be aware of Click me
