Default LimeWire continually Popping up every few seconds & also Opening at System Startup

1. WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of!

2. LimeWire continually Popping up every few seconds & also Opening at System Startup

3. LimeWire popping up - how to eradicate it

4. To check whether it's Limewire settings causing this, go to LW's menu bar, Tools>Options>System Tray (previously called Shutdown) to see which option is ticked. If shutdown immediately is ticked then see above. If not, then you might be waiting for uploads or downlds to complete. But if LW starts up anyway then see above. Do a virus scan to be sure. (see the image below.) The other option is Tools>Options>Advanced>System Startup which allow you to have LW start as soon as you boot up the computer.
