Ok...
I've tried Spybot and Ad-aware SE Personal, but nothing helped.
The problem is still there. I've stopped using limewire now (the new map ''completed'' came up every time)

Name: WIN32.P2P-WORM.ALCAN.A
Zip. Size: 851,7 kb

I tried to delete the zipfiles, but everytime I restarted Limewire the map ''completed'' was still there. How do I get rid of the zipfiles??

If you know the name of the file that is causing the infection, open regedit and "search" for that file name. Then delete them all.

I use Panda Titanium for anti virus, Ewido for maleware, spyware keystroke monitors and other such programs. I also have ZoneAlarm Pro.

Use only one "Shared folder", check all your files and delete all the ones that are 851.7k.

Most of the people I know, they block hosts that have those files in their shared folder. I do the same thing. I know this is not good because many people are not going to be able to access my shared folder but this is a good way to keep careless people out. Careless means, people that don't clean their shared folders from those pests.
I suggest you do the same thing. Every time you search for a file and those 851.7k come up, block that host. That will remind them to clean their shared folder.

Does anyone here know why I download a program and it's called setup.exe and i can't open it because the error is: Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access.
It happens on every program. Thanks!
