Default Geek squad says Limewire ruined my computer

Hello all,

I recently took my Toshiba laptop to the Geek squad for what I thought was a hardware problem.

After 3 years of burning music CDs using Windows media and Itunes, the disks no showed any music files burned to them (mp3 OR mp4). They would show 0 bytes and wouldn't play on anything.

The geeks called me today and said the CD ROM drive works fine with other programs (jpegs, text files, etc), but that malicious software from Limewire has corrupted Windows Media Player and Itunes!

I am skeptical. I've used Limewire for years without this kind of problem.

Before spending the $130 they are going to charge to fix this, I thought it best to consult the experts here.

Can anyone help?


OS: Vista
Trend Micro Anti Virus
2 GB DDR RAM
125 GB free HD space
Wireless Broadband 1.5 MBps
Linksys WRT54G router
Lime Wire 5 Installed and working
