I too installed lime 17 a few years ago and am experiencing almost the same problem...where I'm trying to uninstall lime17 and the msg err pops up! Is there any possible way of uninstalling instead of having to delete all lime files? I don't even know what has been thrown into my other folders by installation...there was some previous talk about a virus...but i don' t have any. I may sound like a tard for asking this...but hey it' s my first time so be gentle...bottom line!??...i want to install lime 2.8. I've fallen and can't get up...someone help my sorry ****! Oh ya, do i have to mention that i'm using a mac???
