limewire is only really bad if you download movies and pr0n on it. but if you stick to tunes it should be relatively safe. but, make sure you get limewire pro. it's key.
if you still don't want to dl it just stick to torrents and get whole cd's.

Like anything - Update your VIRUS Scanner - Scan the file, use it. Usually does the trick.

LimeWire is bad for you, like broccoli is right? LoL

well its all MS fault, video file itself can not contain a virus (i think it is impossible); its that stupid lisence **** that takes you to some random hacker site and download code on to your machine.

i think thats how it works

there is just a lot of spyware included with Limewire. Daniel, you can always go bittorents and downlaod full albums. Or you can get spybot and ad-aware to get rid of the ****.
