    get rid of limewire?

    you probably have a virus or spy/ad/malware

    try AVG, or Avast for free Virus Scans

    try Search and Destroy and spyware guard for free spyware scans

    try adaware se for free adaware scans

    try ewido malware to sniff out malware. it is a 30-day trial, but it will detect all and erase all

    If you dont kno what you are downloading and your PC is acting 'weird' or 'messing' about :D then you got a potential virus or spyware/adware

    I think Master covered most of the proggys available :)

    yup virus scanners. My advice is to stick away from limewire and just use bittorrent and shareaza.

    If your going to use filesharing programs such as Limewire, I would say get a decent AV/firewall.. Bitdefender, Trendmicro, Avast, McAffe, kasperspy, Panda, Zonealarm, ewido... And Norton

    A good addition would be:

    windows defender..


    Maybe your comp has a slight problem also which can easily be fixed by:

    Dial-a-fix.. Just tick all the boxes, and it fixes numerous things, also Ccleaner is good to clean out your comp to prevent it from running slowly..

    Go and download AVG free :) its the best free virus remover program.

    And get adware after that! Go to google to find this stuff.

    what they said...

    I used to be on limewire, until I got a bad virus that robs your hard drive space. I had a 40gb drive, and I used only about 1/4 of it... all the sudden, I have 3mbs left...

    I only go by BT or a w@res site.
