Default Spyware!?!?!

I was checking for responses in my New version= No Connection thread and spotted this quote...

New=bad;old=good

I should have stuck with what I had (v.2.3.4), but I was stupidly tempted by the all-singing all-dancing v.2.4.4 and installed it this p.m.

Since then no connections...

Taliban, I've followed all your advice to the letter and absolutely nothing happens after Limewire loads. I've a sneaking suspicion that this is related to the bundled spyware. I binned/blocked it with Ad-aware/ZoneAlarm as I did with previous versions of Limewire.

I remember though that v.2.4.4 connected the first time, only after I let JAVAWS.EXE online. I know that's spyware and I have since blocked its access ... and since have had no connection.

Coincidence???
What gives?

P.S. I still cant connect with 2.4.4 but I could with 2.3.4. Five minutes after installing 2.4.4 I stopped being able to connect.
