And I want to know what they are and whether I need them. This is a work computer that is not used on the internet EVER. Here are the programs I don't know about
Limewire; Mozilla Firefox; Nero.
If you could explain what they are to me I'd appreciate it!

Limewire can be uninstalled, you are more likely to get virus' from what you download than an actual file. Mozilla Firefox is an internet browser like Internet Explorer, except better. Nero is for burning data, music, video, or whatever discs. It's quite useful

Limewire is a file sharing program mostly used to download music. Your work probably would not like this on their computer.
Mozilla Firefox is an internet browser like Internet Explorer. Nothing wrong with that.
Nero is CD and DVD burning (creation) program that is either a trial or a pirated version. Probably wise to delete
You can restore your computer to the way it was before your cousin used it by using system restore.
Press the Start Button the Help and Support
Under Pick a Task on the right side of the help and support window click on "Undo changes to your computer with System Restore".
You will have the option of creating a restore point or restoring your computer. Pick a date from the calendar to restore back to. All files and program created after that date will be deleted.

- "Limewire" is a program for sharing files over a peer-to-peer network; since your computer is not linked to the Internet, it will never work (excepting the case your computer is on a LAN; you'll be able to share files in that network);
- "Mozilla Firefox" is a pretty good Internet browser, but, if you don't have an Internet connection, what's the use of it?
- "Nero" is a program for writting CDs and DVDs. You can use it if you have a CD writer or a DVD writer.
I hope I could help you.

Limewire is a P2P program used for downloading music
Mozilla Firefox is a web browser for surfing the web
Nero is a burner program used to make CD's and DVD's
if your computer is never on the internet you can get rid of Limewire and Firefox because they are used only for internet use.
Nero you should keep if you copy or make CD's

Limewire - File sharing program. Application is not illegal but is often associated with illegal file sharing more than legitimate file sharing.
Mozilla Firefox - A free alternative web browser to Internet Explorer.
Nero - CD/DVD burning software. Not a free application so likely your cousin installed a cracked version or used an illegal key to activate the software. Note: Your system may have already had this application if it was provided by your system vendor.

Limewire is a peer-to-peer file sharing site. Firefox is a web browser and Nero is a burning tool to copy music and videos to disk and is also used for playing.
