I installed Limewire and deleted it when I decided not to download music anymore, hard as that is. Anyway, when I right click on folders, the "sharing" option shows up--though the program is gone, folders still seem to think that they can be shared?

Let me know how I, a peace-loving worker, can rid myself of this evil.

Sharing folders in this case probably doesn't have anything to do with LimeWire. You can share any folder on your hard drive over a local area network (regardless of operating system). It's a pretty standard feature, and to include it in a contextual menu is something Windows XP does by default, IIRC.

Okay, do I have a dirty mind or what? When I read this thread title, I could have sworn the word "Limeware" was "Lingerie".

Yes.
