If you are experiencing problems with Limewire, such as a partially downloaded file that, when played, states the file is corrupted or are experiencing difficulties in removing stubborn files, then there is a high chance that you have been infected with the Klobowsky.net virus. This particular virus was manufactured by record companies and spread through P2P file sharing programs as a way of stopping illegal file sharing. It has 2 main functions. Firstly is will record all of your PC's information (including your IP address) and report it back to a central location for further processing.
Secondly, it will either shut down the file sharing program, forcing all who wish to continue engaging in illegal activities to uninstall it and re-install or a particular file will embed itself on your system and you will find it near on impossible to remove. It has been known to, on the odd occasion, corrupt files already on the PC and require a full hard drive reformat. Some users have reported that they have inadvertently infected friends PC's after sending an e-mail or having a chat on Yahoo or MSN Messenger.
I strongly recommend you refrain from using file sharing programs. It is much safer that way.

It might still be downloading in limewire. Cancel the download if it is, and completely shut down limewire.
Highlight it and hold down shift, then press delete (NOT YOUR BACKSPACE KEY).
If that still doesn't work, SHUT OFF YOUR COMPUTER and LEAVE it off for 30 seconds, then reboot it and try again.

Make sure you don't have the song currently on any playlists (eg on Winamp or WMP) as if it's in use, you won't be able to delete it.
