Sad to hear that Baboon. I would fix it for you but I'm too far away. Had I only been next door.
What you can do is quit LimeWire and start backing shit up like crazy.
Or copy it to other locations on your harddrive.

Put an anti-virus (Avast) in your computer and don't use LM.
I put my music files on an usb extern hard drive.

I have been using LW but a computer expert told me it can crash the computer. So I have uninstalled it. But who cares, when we've got Hot Stuff.

I've uninstalled all LW. Also learned
Explorer is cr*p. But one is getting used
to the Explorer browser after some eight years of
non-stop using of it.
Back to torrentin'.
