I think I have a virus.

I go to click on something say like Morpheus and a text box comes up saying.

"File Corrupted !

Please run a virus-check, then reinstall the application."

I haven't used it in about a week, so i went to my stinger (Mcafee) to see if i had a virus and another text box comes up saying.

"Stinger may be infected, cannot continue"

This only happens on certain programs, etc like Morpheus but Limewire still loads up fine. I have tried deleting Morpheus and reinstalling it but it still comes up with the same message

What the heck has happened to my computer over night, I don't know.

If you have the free version of Morpheus it has spyware. If you delete any of the spyware packages it will prevent Morpheus from working. Perhaps a protection program you have detected th espyware and deleted it. Limewire does not have spyware! Try running your McAffee scan while in the safe mode. If your system is infected you will need to turn off system restore and rerun the scan againg if you see any files listed as restore file protected could not repair/delete.
