Incomplete Download File won't delete at all (click on link). This link has some programs listed to help delete files that refuse to delete.
You might want to clean the registry up a bit too: http://www.ccleaner.com/
It will help get rid of files that aren't needed anymore such as old version registry files that are sometimes left behind.

Just hang tight, we have been advised that some security apps have added things to their updates and apparently allowing a p2p app as an exception doesn't make a difference... we are just waiting to hear back from a member on the fix for this...Don't give up hope yet...btw did we tell you how wonderful you have been through all of this, you have the patience of a saint...

In that case, try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.) It might also be worth reinstalling LW (but use the "Offline" installer.) Perhaps removing some of those security apps has affected LW negatively somehow.
