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. 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. Last edited by EdBanda101; October 21st, 2005 at 10:58 PM. |

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

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!!!
