I Hate Limewire

[PleaseHelpMe]

:mad: ...
I've been trying to uninstall Limewire for a while now cuz it does this thing where it starts up on it's own and then there are like 982372 Limewire's running at the same time causing my computer to slow down and sometimes freeze. So I uninstalled it, but it starts up and then comes up with an error and continues on doing the same thing but with error notices instead..

Make a new folder at this location,
C:\ called "BFU"
Download Brute Force Uninstaller. By Merijn author of Hijackthis.
http://www.merijn.org/files/bfu.zip
Unzip it to it’s own folder (c:\BFU)

Doubleclick on BFU.exe, Click the round green icon (open script URL)
copy then paste in


http://metallica.geekstogo.com/alcanshorty.bfu
Press execute and let it do it’s job.

Wait for the complete script execution box to popup and press OK.
If the script is really executed you should have seen a progress bar.
Press exit to exit the BFU program.
If you have any questions about the use of BFU please read here:
http://metallica.geekstogo.com/BFUinstructions.html


Restart the PC

Once back Run HijackThis and post a fresh log.
