Half Evil Golden Master Messages 16,076 Feb 25, 2006 #6 Well, screwed!!! Probably a self extracting program, maybe trojan/virus. Um.. Keep working at it. But be sure to set a system restore time..

T The Power Daemon Poster Messages 616 Feb 25, 2006 #9 Yeah, you gotta close lime wire and all the other programs that can access it and play it. It should work.
