I have the latest version of LW (ver 4.12.4) as I downloaded it before when I re-installed it and it was downloaded directly from the LW site so that's not the problem.

BitTottent is completely closed as it isn't set to run on startup and is disabled in 'msconfig' but still LW doesn't work after rebooting. It is possible that they're fakes however if that is the case then how can every occurrence of a file be a fake, surely some out there are genuine?
