Oh, by the way, sorry for the doublepost but yeah, I'm using that one guy's fix where you rename your limewire folder and download Windows Anti Spyware or whatever the name was. I don't care if it slows down my computer a little, I'm used to it, and I can live with not having the task manager come up with Ctrl + Alt + Delete. So far limewire has not popped up again, but of course the Task Manager doesn't come up. But since I have it on my desktop I can get it when I need it. But this virus ticked me off and I will take great pleasure in dismembering it piece by piece myself. I hope the limewire staff purges this virus from the searches forever.

this is what the message looks like:

Go to program files, Press L untill you get to Limewire and just delete the folder. Thats how I fixed it for myself.

LW's media player can sometimes have that problem if LW is very busy downlding, etc. So what you can do is go to LW's menu bar, Tools>Options>Player & uncheck the option to use LW's media player. I'm not sure if you need to restart LW, but after that your default audio player will play them instead.

BTW this thread topic is about viruses. Your topic is different. But the thread title does seem to justify your posting here.

Who said anything about config. I said to go see Norbie because he is an expert at helping people eliminate viruses & get their system back in order thereafter. There's no one answer to all virus problems.

(Like a lot of people I made the mistake of having Norton on my comp. Fat lot of good that did me.)

I strongly suggest Ewido Security Suite. It saved my life - if not my sanity, because two days of running nearly non-stop virus scans will turn anyone batty.

you think you got it bad, i hit NINETY THOUSAND!
all were in some volume thingy. idk what they were but deleting them sure fixed everything. this program rocks!~ thanks grandpa

PROBLEM: the limewire virus corrupted my system so badly that it hangs / freezes every minute and it destroyed my firewall as well. volume control is disabled and internet access is forbidden..limewire keeps popping up and advertistments are getting on my nerves.

SOLUTION: My advice would be to uninstall limewire completely and delete any files with associations to limewire, then download trial files of ewido anti-spyware or etrust antivirus program and do a complete system scan. delete any files that are infected. i did that and i went to http://www.norbiesworld.co.uk and now everything's fixed! it feels so nice to see all the firewalls, updates and virus protection turned on at your security centre (: if you're experiencing the same problem, sign up at norbiesworld and go to "free computer help" =D

REFERENCE: http://www.norbiesworld.co.uk/Forums...326.html#18326 this is where i posted my help message, feel free to view as reference!! =)

lime6, glad that you went to Norbie, he's good

I'd have to say that prevention is better than cure though... everybody should make sure that they have a good AV program (no excuse not to as there are very reliable free ones!), keep it updated and scan downloaded files before opening!!!!
