It sounds like you have a virus. Are you using an anti-virus program to protect your pc. You should be because if your not your just asking for trouble:eek:.

Anyway check out this thread, it may point you in the right direction:

WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of!

good luck

ya this just started happening when i uploaded the new version of limewire. i never happened before. i think it does have to do with java, when i deleted limewire a notification from java came up saying somthing about limewire.

You have to have java for LW to work.
Check out this post: Fixes for Limewire when LW isn't operating as it should! It has suggestions for java problems.
But I still think it''s a virus:confused: :(

It still sounds to me like 6_pac is on track. See 1. LimeWire continually Popping up every few seconds & also Opening at System Startup, & also this 2. LimeWire popping up - how to eradicate it

A virus is the only thing that will cause that unless, your LW options are set for LW start at system startup. Go to LW's menu bar, Tools>Options>Advanced>System startup & make sure this option is unchecked!!!
