Angry LimeWire spreading virus on my computer?

Recently Nortan Anti-virus found a file named 1999 memory lane. eml (i think) it said it contained a w32.nimda.enc virus. It was in the ...\limewire\2.4.3\ directory (not my download directory). Nortan delected this file. I attempted to uninstall Limewire and reinstall, once i reinstalled the same virus was found, now I want to permanently remove limewire and switch p2p software however limewire will not uninstall, and each day about 50 more files containing this virus are found on my computer. If you have any idea what could be wrong or have experience dealing with the w32.nimda.enc virus please reply with advice.
