WTF ?

Peerless, HELP !

Boys and girls !!!

'AUTO DOWNLOAD' is = to a normal download of an application install file... But, I fear that it could be misread... i.e., 'DownLoad and then Auto-Install'...
"AutoDownload" is certainly a serious misnomer here as it actually is in reference, common usage, to allowing a program to search for and download updates after said program has been successfully installed.)
'AutoDownload' in this instance STILL involves you having to make critical selections as to how to proceed... It is not 'AUTO' in any sense of the word...

I say again...

ALWAYS download ANY installer to a directory of your choice... NOT your 'Desktop' !
THEN, after virus scanning, proceed with the installation process.
YOU MAINTAIN AT LEAST SOME DEGREE OF CONTROL.

Do NOT select 'OPEN' when you are presented with a choice of what to do with your completed download.
ALWAYS choose 'SAVE'.

ALWAYS means 99.99% of the time... The exceptions are so rare that they are hardly worth mentioning here.

pedantically yours,
'urs the curse'

p.s. BEFORE... Yes, gang, BEFORE installing LimeWire or any other Java based application, it is certainly worth the brief and simple effort to FIRST go to the official Sun Microsystems Jave site and install Java DIRECTLY via them... If you already happen to have a current installation of Jave, this will cause you no problems... After installing the latest version of Java via Sun, you will be able to very easily confirm the installation as being correct.
