I was wondering if someone could tell me what something I found in my LimeWire downloads library was. I recently found a T-4494664-LimeWireWin4.16.2.exe in my "incomplete files" window in LimeWire, and despite my computer being shared among a family of 5 people (3 of which do not use it regularly), not knowing how it got there. It was downloading by itself, and when I tried to delete it, it said that it was being used by another program. I went to where it was located in C:Documents and Settings/Owner/Incomplete/, and deleted it from there, but it reappeared soon afterwards when I opened up LimeWire again. I hope I don't sound like a complete new member (although I am), but is this a normal LimeWire update, or is it malware of some kind? The .exe file did not actually appear in the active LimeWire downloads window, so I'm wondering why as well as due to the suspicious circumstances of its appearance. I did not go to the LimeWire forums because they may not have known what it was. Is this how LimeWire updates itself? Thanks if you enlighten a new worried user. :)
