gonu is flying high
Default I'm Unable to delete shared folder file

While I was downloading a song the other day, Limewire 4.10 just shut down. I Tried to start it up again but it would start loading and then stop. So I Uninstalled it and downloaded the new one but the same thing happens. I just want to get all of the limewire "stuff" off of my computer and then install it again. I've deleted almost everything except one folder that holds all of the limewire shared stuff. I have tried everything to delete it and get rid of it, but nothing works. Every time I try to do something to it, a window pops up that says,"Windows explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close".


I Need Help Please!!!

Your shared folder is by default in the Hard drive > Doccuments and Settings > User name > shared...
You could have a faulty file in there causing windows to close....

Sounds like you may have accidentally downloaded a virus or something within that folder.

1. May I suggest you have your computer checked out at norbie's site, & register & follow his directions carefully: NorbiesWorld (click on link). Then you might not need to delete your shared files.

2. Incomplete Download File won't delete at all (click on link)
