uninstall is flying high
Default

Hi, thanks for replying. I will give all that a go, well probably re-installing first and then uninstalling. I'm just worried if I go for re-installing it may cause more problems.
I didn't have LM running when I tried to uninstall.

What did you mean by make sure you are logged in with admin permissions?

By Java I just meant I want to uninstall whatever additional stuff was needed for LM (I think it is the Java stuff right? haha).

If I just delete it manually how can I be sure to get everything? What should I search for, I've seen on some posts on the net long file names e.g.

Go to the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Run. If you find the value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows\curr entversion\run\limeshop, delete it and reboot the machine immediately.

Remove these registry items (if present) with RegEdit:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\microsoft\internet explorer\menuext\limeshop preferences
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\microsoft\windows\curre ntversion\explorer\menuorder\start menu\programs\limewire
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows\curr entversion\installer\userdata\s-1-5-18\components\9e11dbbf317d89b4f92af7d63ab22d26

Aside from this can you recommend a free anti-spy program because I am using BT Yahoo Anti-spy but I feel it is missing stuff because when I have my browser open, sometimes the icons on the toolbar sorta flash or refresh (hard to explain) as if something is being activated maybe from typing?

Thanks
