c:\program files\hideip.exe is not bad for $35 here:
http://www.hide-ip-soft.com/
But generally this is a useless product. It can not hide your IP from anyone in the know. I already have your real IP (not that I care anyway)
HideIP is made for those real basic things like basic browsing, but when it comes to downloading, everything is sent out as per normal. Except it says User downloading from (I'll use *) From: ***.***.***.*** Using this address **.**.***.**
Sooo what's the use?
Anyway because you have Limewire still installed
Then this thread is finished
Here's your options:
Live with malware (you know the stuff that sends all your info everywhere)
or Uninstall Limewire (well that aint happening for you)
or Use a live free Linux CD (preferred) Then you won't get any malware! Here's one:

(you can even get a free CD

)
Anyway, I'm not starting from the start again, but you are advised to (once every 2 days!)
Good luck :grinthumb
Edit:
You know being a gamer, you really should stick around here though
Basically TechSpot was built on gaming and support
I have stacks of games, but I'm pretty much bored with all that
But there's many here that really get into gaming help and support
ie Lets not burn any bridges here
