After I run LimeWire it will last for about 5 minutes then my computer will lockup and I have to reboot it. Everything was fine til I installed it. I unistalled it but it seems there's something left over that is still locking my computer up.

If you have XP SP2 than try to patch your system with: http://mitglied.lycos.de/lvllord/download-mirror.htm

If is not working try this link:

And post a reply so I know if it worked !(by doing this you can help some other people who are having the same problemes !!! )
