Exclamation Clean LW 2.1.3 is ready

You heard it : CLW 2.1.3 is ready !
Download it here : http://users.pandora.be/karel.boonen...s/LimeWire.exe

We also included the Flash tour so new users can get the basics right .

We now built a routine into the installer to neuter CyDoor if anyone is switching over from "Official" LW to "Clean" LW .
You can also install this version ontop of any previous version of CLW .

I dont believe it!
Lime wire has f****d up again. You would think that after fiasco and bad press they had recieved when they released 2.0.3 with virus and spy-ware, they would have learned!
No such luck!

2.1.3 installs spy ware as well!!!
if you installed 2.1.3 (regardless wheather you opted out of extra insalls) check your ProgamFiles directory for "topMoxie" folder. it contains JavaRun.exe which will connect to internet and send info about your system without your knowledge.

LW, you really suck!!!!

Then use CLW 2.1.3 !
It can disable CyDoor when you install it .

No removal function for TopMoxie yet .
But were working on it ...

I did use it, thanks.

I was able to remove topMoxi from my registry by hand. I would not recommend that option to anyone not familiar with the registry, it could really mess up your system.
However if you feel confident enough go for it, it worked for me.

Also, I would strongly reccomed using a two-way fire wall (such as Zone Alarm). It will alert you to any software on your computer trying to establish link with the web. If I did not have it installed I would still be running all the spy ware LimeWire 2.0.3 installed.

well, I did not take exact notes when I was trying to fix it. The way I went about it was to perform a search for JavaRun.exe (that's the executeable fund in topMoxie directory) in the registry. There was only one entry to be removed. After that I also had to delete topMoxie directory from Program Files.
hope that helps.

We didn't , we edited the LimeWireNoVM.zip file in http://www.limewire.com/index.jsp/download_other .
Then we wrapped it up into an Installer .

The LW team only seems to release new source with mayor changes .

Anyway , you should be able to find it on limewire.org .
We can ! Look harder ...

@1st unregistred: that trojan existed since beta 1.9 not 2.0.3 so if your angry at least have your facts strait.

@VTOLfreak: any chance you can release CLW w/o installer?
i really dislike installers and can just as easily copy files myself.
installer always make me fill like dev is trying to hide something during install...i know you don't. but your bandwidth will be that much smaller if ppl d/l nice small .zip/ace/rar/whatever than bigass installer .exe
