have had limewire for a couple of years.... thought I'd download a video last nite cause I'd never done that before... BAD MOVE! The file was infected with some type of trojun. Got rid of the virus but have no idea what all it did to my computer the short time it was there..... Ended up uninstalling limewire cause the trojun had downloaded like 15,000 files and counting and I could'nt stop it. Thought I'd re-install limewire today but the online downloader just gets stuck on the page where it asks me if I want to "Enable content filtering" .... it won't take me to the next page to finalize. .... just stays on that page... What to do... Please help!!!!!

Delete your LW prefs folder as described.

Reinstall LW using the OFFLINE LW installer: http://www9.limewire.com/download/LimeWireWin-full.exe

WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of! (click on blue link) Make sure you are rid of the virus. Some anti-virus programs don't detect or remove them properly.

Check above advice. Also under Fixes for LW options .. try changing compatibility mode, deleting prefs folder, & replacing the Java.

Default back-up installer didn't work

Hi...
I tried the backup installer as well, and I continue to get the same error message trying to install.

Limewire 4.9.27
"This installation is corrupted. Please download and install limewire again."

It doesn't matter which I use, I keep getting the same error message...

any suggestions?
Thanks!
