unwanted downloads
 
I have been getting and thousand or more unwanted 399.0 in size downloads several times a day.

I also had the problem where limewire starts, shuts down and restarts itself.

I used mcafee antispyware and the starting, stopping, and restarting prblem seems to have gone away.

I looked at another post regarding unwanted downloads and it said that after a restart an application will try and setup. I canceled as advised. It said to search for the string p2pnetwork in the registry and delete it and then to restart in safe mode. I have done this several times but it won't go away.

Any advice on how to stop this would be greatly appreciated.

I jsut checked on limewire again and it has been disconnected. I just went from 1000 files to 5000 in the last 1/2 hour.

virus protection as well as spy-ware is a necessity. See if the link above helps.
