I am on a Mac, OS X (obviously) .2.6, I have been running the latest version of limewire, which I believe is 3.4.4. About a week ago, I must have tried to download a file, it went into the transfers window (it was a T-0-0-*filename* type of name, though, which I believed was temp...I don't remember trying to download any temp files from anyone). No one else has access to my computer.

The problem is the file won't disappear. I have deleted it multiple times, both from the Limewire window, the hard file itself inside the incomplete folder, and from the terminal window. When I try to delete it as it is, it gives me some junk about not being able to find it (in the terminal), because the name is strange. I go into the folder, rename the file, delete it just fine, empty the trash, etc. And then the next time I open Limewire, there it is again, still not connected, still not downloading. Sitting there happily at 0.0 k.

I trashed the cache and restarted, nothing changed. So I deleted all Limewire files, prefs, etc. And restarted, downloaded the beta version (5.2, I think) and installed. And there it was again. This file refuses to go away. I have run a virus scan and Macaffee says I have no trojans, no viruses, etc.

Does anyone have any idea what's going on? I'm really getting frustrated and have expended all of my knowledge...

I have also been getting this bug message on starting up Limewire: I've sent it in...
