Why will the file not delete? Recently I downloaded a file that I despretely needed to get rid of, i cleared in from the list when you are currently downloading it and I went to "incomplete files" and deleted them, but everytime i turn off my computor or even shut down limewire they return!!! If Possible could someone please help me? Thank-you! |

Super, if you want people to take you seriously I strongly suggest you remove that childish :P from your sig as its stretching out the page. and if you cant get a file to delete I also suggest you run an Anti Virus scanner right away to see if that file has been infected with a virus. If in Windows you will need to reboot your computer then go into your limewire shared folder and then, delete. If it still doesnt delete after that, then you have been infected. |

Sounds to me like you have partial file sharing enabled. I'd suggest you close LW, then try deleting the file. If still doesn't work, try these: Incomplete Download File won't delete at all (click on link) |

let me exlpain a little futher it allows me to delete the incomplete file but the next time Limewire runs the file automaticly returned to the "Currently Downloading" list (I didnt just clear inactive I went to library then "incomplete" then deleted it, anyway I think the problem was when I was downloading a music video and then when I opened it, it wasnt my music video it was porn!!! so im thinking it contained some sort of virus but no matter what I did it wouldnt delete!) |

It sounds like a virus to me; see WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of! (click on link) & get Norbie to fix it for you. Damn I hope he actually does something this time. Oh & btw remove or shorten your sig or I'll do it for you. Perhaps I'll do it before you. Lotr (forum mod/admin.) |
