I would recommend looking for it in add/remove programs... if it is not in there, you should go to www.download.com and download adaware(and/or spyware doctor) to remove any adware that is on your system

you can't really get rid of them but you can eliminate the icons and also change them to something you do want.\nclick on the little arrow on the right and select from the drop-down list.\nto "get rid of the icons" navigate to C:&#92;Program Files&#92;Windows Media Player&#92;Icons and delete the contents of the folder.

Sounds like spyware/malware. In Start / Run / type msconfig\n/ OK / In Startup tab, search for reference to the file and\nuntick it / Restart.\n\nDo you regularly run Ad-Aware and Spybot? If not, get free\ndownloads he\n\nAd-Awa\nhttp://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/\n\nSpybot:\nhttp://www.spybot.info/

To the best of my knowledge Limewire does not contain any adware or spyware. Download Spybot Search & Destroy and Lavasoft Ad-aware. Run a full scan with both and see if they detect anything. If they do uninstall the version of Limewire that you have and install the latest version. Many P2P program do contain adware and effectively open a connection to your PC. \nAs most anti-spyware programs work from a database of known threats, yahoo anti-spy should be using known information, although all these types of programs can make mistakes.\nMaybe the version of Limewire that you have has some security issues. Use the information as a possible threat and carry out more tests before removing Limewire.

Wel maybe the files its still in use by a program. Try CTRL+ALT+DEL to see the programs that are currently running and terminate those related to WindowsMediaPlayer in the Process Tab. There you will find a file named "wmplayer.exe" or similar, select it then "Finish" the process.\n\nAfter that, go and try to delete your file.\n\nThis method is similar to the above that said to reboot and/or go to SafeMode because that way you force all the programs to go down.

If its for sure not spyware, then it is most likely the windows registry. You'll need to get a program like Registry Mechanic (not free) and scan your registry for problems.

Because it has adware in it. I stopped using it once it started getting adware. I use soulseek. It's a experiment program that some company is using as a ginny pig (sp?) to see what work with file transfers and all that stuff. It's a little harder to get downloads, but personally I don't mind waiting a couple hours for a song.
