Question Spywarebot has quarantined LW..HELP!!

Hey guys.. I have just uploaded and run Spywarebot through my computer coz i downloaded some dodgy stuff the other day off LW and wanted to clean it out!! It discovered 89 "Parasites" so i ran the program to rid the computer of these "nasties"!!
When i had finished i went to open LW through the shortcut on my desktop and it said it was an invalid shortcut! So I went in through explorer and found that the .exe file for limewire, plus the sharing files and soforth had been "quarantined"!
I have Windows Vista and am a legitimite registered operator of limewire pro 14.10 (i think thats the version) ...
I hate to bother you but if anyone knows how to solve this i would be greatly appreciative.. Anything will help..I'm a techno bogan but trying to learn..Also i dont want to start old arguments up, but is there spyware on LW or is it just because it is a p2p sharing???

In advance, i'm indebted again...Cheers
