I dont have a limewire.jar in my lib folder -- well I cant see one anyway -- as for the jotti scan as well as MBAM & SAS scans I can only presume that you are clean -- if you wish you can go to this link (bleepingcomputer.com) free registration (like LW) Scroll down to " HijakThis logs and Virus/Trojan/Spyware/Malware Removal" click on it -- select new topic -- and explain your problem -- these people are experts at removing malware/viruses and they have a lot more tools/knowledge to do so -- also tell them what you have done so far to fix the problem -- please be patient as they are very busy

Now if I delete this file limewire will not run or start-up!
I also have a file
C:\program files\limewire\lib\hsqld5
this file Trend says also has the TROJ_Generic.DIT infection, but if I click that on it does nothing.
do you have this hsqld5 file?

Just FYI, another Trend Micro user is having the same prob: NEED a executable jar file!!!

Do another scan with MBAM & SAS if they dont pick anything up I think what we have here could be a false positive -- birdy has provided some extra information please click on her links -- this problem seems to only affect the users of Trend Micro antivirus as far as I know -- have you been able to contact your Trend Micro antivirus support people for any information regarding this problem. It could be an update in your Trend Micro Antivirus that is causing this problem -- No I dont have the hsqld5 in the lib folder -- I do have a hsqldb file

I tried birdy limewire.jar file and I scan it right after I downloaded it to my desktop and it was infected Right when I got it. Only when scan with Trend Mirco no other scanner is showing any virus.

Yes that hsqldb file in mine does not have a 5 at the end I must of typed it in wrong. But mine has a virus in it also.

I am going to be calling Trend Micro tomorrow to see what is the problem.

I still have the option of going to the other web site you told me about (beeping or something of that) I am just trying to figure out how it works.

Thanks

OK everyone, I just got done talking to a tech at Trend Micro. She told me that they are flooded with calls concerning the TROJ_Generic.Dit virus. She told me that they know it is caused from their site. You do not have this virus if it says you do. They are working on it as fast as possible and to be patient. Also she told me that their sorry for the inconvience. Hopefully it will be taken care of soon.

Thanks everyone for the help
have a good one
llubkle

Ok -- Thanks for the update

yep me to trend anti virus is popping up an alert but i think their really is somthing wrong with these files,they wont play.I tried two newer songs and they were corrupted but on a older one it was not.I had a problem that was familar with alot of limwire users latley.I couldnt get connected with the gunettla network,only had 1 green bar on conectivty,the rest red.I tried everything,finally i unistalled all of limewire,even the hidden files as instructed and installed it again.Ok finally fixed it,got connected to network,but now im having problems with newer songs having somthing screwy with them.I mean they wont even play on media player or limwire player and then micro virus goes crazy.used limwire for many many songs in pasr never had this problem before.Is it possible that the record companies have figured a way to beat file sharing or does this have somthing to do with the latesr glitch of limwire

Hi mark,
could be fake files that you are downloading -- check this link by LOTR --try playing them with another player -- click on this link cant play tunes by 6_pack
