i tried to update windows it wouldnt do it?
i tried to reinstall internet explorer but it wouldnt do it,
and it took 4 attempts to format the hard drive too.

I dont know what that is but Im guessing its not a bug but a virus. I suggest you use a anti virus program while downloading, wrongly named files can contain viruses/trojans and worms too and please refrain from posting titles. I suggest you scan your system with a good AV from now on or, you'll be reformatting everytime you get a virus. and becarefull what you download, pirated software contains the MOST viruses. thats why these items are free to dl from Gnutella because they are usually infested. good luck.

Maybe I should have asked you the obvious question? WHERE did you get Limewire Pro? Because the ONLY place to get it is at this URL: www.limewire.com and it ONLY costs 18.88 in US dollars and the REAL Pro IS NOT buggy, nor would it harm your computer. I just wanted to clerify that. If you go t any other website to buy it you will have been scammed/conned and paid for a fake/hacked version of Limewire Pro.

Yep there's scam sites that offer hacked versions of LW that may have spyware, adware, virii, etc. See WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of! or just make you pay & they give you links to the Basic version which is free from the official site: Membership? - **WARNING ** - Download p2p Clients ONLY Thru Official Sites

If you use the Resume/Find Sources function on all or too many of your files at one time then LW will definitely use up all of your computer's resources & probably also the net's bandwidth. Don't use this function if you can. See the following link & follow “ALL” the off-shoot links to find hints & extra skills to help: To continue files downlding (click on link) Even browsing host can help continue files ... to restart them downlding. Direct connect the same effect.

Then there's no bug with your LW because if there was, you wouldnt be able to download.
