    trying to clean up here, I can't find Limewire in "add/remove programs" and also there is no uninstall.exe in the folder so I don't know where to go from here.

    Try CCleaner, are you sure that it's still installed on you system?

    sorry guys, I found it......

    ok, I take that back..... I found uninstall when I click programs and then limewire but when I click on uninstall window searches for it but can't find it.
    ----
    "The item uninstall.exe that this shortcut refers to has been changed or moved, so this shortcut will not longer work properly" Do you want to delet this shortcut?
    ----
    So I guess I'm back to the same problem.
    I'll give CCleaner a shot next.

    Nope, CCleaner does not list it in the uninstall list.....

    I would install it again, then uninstall. Normally there's an uninstaller...

    Does CC see it in the startup items list? If not try this, and run CCleaner to get rid of it.
