Limewires working just fine but when I close the program, about 5 seconds later the loading box re-appears and I can't ever have Limewire closed. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Just use Ares. I thought it sucked at first, but I got use to it and I find it way way better than Limewire. :)

It takes like two seconds to load up. It's virus free. Limewire was covered in them. I think it has an easier and useful interface. Just generally its more unique than Limewire.

It's no problem, I just always sit back and laugh at people who use Limewire and say "It's the best."

Limewire doesn't have a virus. The virus comes from the files you download. If you use a P2P program A LOT you have a very good chance to get a virus. Also, Morpheus is and will always be the best.

I never said Limewire is a virus, I meant to say that the files you downloaded can come with a virus.

If Limewire is doing that just press ctrl, alt, delete, and go to processes. Then delete the limewire process.

Ares has viruses, just like all programs in that catagory. Limewire is more popular; meaning it has more songs. I have tried ares, limewire is faster. Just dont download stuff that is 15 kbs or a 5 minute song that is 500 kbs etc.

Ctrl alt delete won't work on my comp. Happened after limewire was installed. I dunno if limewire did it though.
