Default RBOT-AGH worm installs with LW
PLease help. When I install LW 4.9.37 on WinXP it has the RBOT-AGH worm installed with it. How did this happen and how do I stop it?

Where the heck you get that file from? Download.com? Limewire.com?

If you got anywhere that is not known to people then you get scammed.

When I uninstalled LW by using the LW uninstaller then manually deleting all the files left in the LW folder the rbot-ugh worm went away. It returned when I reinstalled LW from the LW site. This happened on two uninstalls and two reinstalls. I just did this 3rd time...and no worm has appeared (yet). I now have "Hijack This" installed and ready to deal with any future appearances. Thanks for your help.
