Since your existing antivirus was helpless, try this one:

Thnxx I guess.

I will give it a try,
it is busy now with the huge file inventory.


And I had no original Anti Virus or Firewall. I trust myself for not downloading Rubbish.

Cheers,

Default OK, Now I AM lost.

forgive me if I am going to say something ignorant because I have no knowledge.

The scan results of 180000 Files has come up with 36028 Corrupted ones.

1. I kinda got the idea that's impossible, I mostly buy my software, but correct me if I am wrong.
2. Isn't it just one program trying to create chaos so that it can avoid such system checks?

But the most anoying thing is.
After it "fixed" all the files.

THE DARN POP UP STILL IS NOT GONE.

I am running a seccond and third run with reboots.
and as we know with windows that could be the trick.
I just needed to post this to get rid of me anger.



Cheers,

Hi cerafil.
After finding so many bogus files, its my recomendation that you Defragment
your computer, that will help speed things up for you.
also stay away from .exe,.rar,.zip files, they are 99.9% viruses.
Here's another exelent Free program that is used by the experts.
When using P2P, I sujest you run a scan befor turning off your computer,
Some nasties, become active once you reboot, so a scan with SpyBot, may
clear these before they become a problem.
Oh! dont use the advanced options,Before reading all the facts, you could damage your computer.
Use this link to get SpyBot search n destroy.

Peace.

Thank you MICK I forgot, very good of you to remember me.
I run one every month, but the latest was very recent.

I might just be oblivious to the good things it can do, but Spybot S&D has never brought Me anything but trouble.

Anywayz I will defrag..

When I tried reinstalling limewire..... I never got any further. I had to manually delete all the ocrrupted files that came in.
100's of them

These 100's of small files are downloaded by the worm itself and can be a pain
From what you are saying, I would have a good clear out.
Here is a method used to start from the begining.

Follow thease instructions exactly.
So, you need to Go, Start/All Programs/LimeWire n Uninstall all L/W versions.
Do Not Uninstall From Change or Remove Programs.
Re BOOT Your computer NOW.

Now Go to, Start/Search/click on all files n folders/more advanced options/
& make sure, case sensitive, is not ticked. (all other boxes should be ticked)
Now!!, Put limewire in box, (all or part of file name) & click search.
Delete everything found, including Prefetch folder, (I mean everything)
Re BOOT Your computer NOW.

Now! Go to,
START/Set Program Access/Change or Remove Programs,
now completely remove all versions of java.
Re BOOT Your computer NOW.

Now! Use this Link to get JRE 6, Use the off line installer, NOT the (recormended) one,
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
When Download is completed.
Disconnect from internet, close ALL apps n reinstall java.

Now!! Use this link to download latest L/W version using the off line installer
http://www.limewire.com/
If you need help, Shout, If it fixed your problem or not, Feedback helps others.
Peace

When I read you help I find out I will run into 2 problems I cannot solve yett.

1.
There are 5 boxes to click.

Which from above is it? 1st, 2nd... ect.

My windows is in dutch and I have not found out the translation they used for Case sensitivity (Bestands gevoeligheid)(freetranslated)

2.
I never disable my internet, I frankly do not know another way to disconnect then pull out the network cable.

I figured I could better ask this first instead of starting like a mad man and **** up

Cheers

:O And I did Uninstall limewire already, so it will not appear in start/programs...

Does this mean I must reinstall it?

P>S> The POP UP I Started this subject for is GONE.
But I am very willing to help out.. and give feedback.
