    So I just got my new laptop 2 days ago and now there's something wrong with it. It's really messed up actually. I downloaded Limewire and then after I shut it the first time it wouldn't open up again. I thought it was just Limewire so I got rid of it and downloaded Morpheus. But the same thing happened again. Then I tried to work my built in webcam and it's not working either. It says that's theres a problem and Windows will contact me or whatever. And then now my MSN randomly switched to French settings. I have no idea what I did and I'm so confused!!

    Was it working fine before you d/l limewire? If so, it sounds like you may have d/l a virus along with limewire. Are you using any anti-virus. Try running it and see what it comes up with. If no anti-virus, you may need to reformat the HD and reinstall windows.
