Hello Please can u suggest?
 

Hello I uninstalled Limewire but I'll put back up, anyway my brother be saying that LW messes up the PC, he also said that a friend got his PC messed up, is it because he wasn't careful and didnt scan the files before downloading them right? Because I was told that before u download a file make sure that you scan it(A friend of mine told me that)to prevent it from infecting your PC.
Please a few warnings before I download.
Thanks for reading!:xeri_ok1ani:

i have had Limewire for years and never had a problem with it messing with my computer

Beware of downloading programs and game files... They usually are incomplete or full of viruses. If you have a virus program with real-time scanning it should alert you before the dl is complete, allowing you to stop the dl. Also checkout the stickys under the getting started forum. They are very helpful.:dance:

Thank u all!! :idea: :Smilywais: :xeri_ok1ani: :xirokrotima:

Hmm I wont be able to post for a while someone wont let me on tha PC:o

Once i hit a certain number of files my computer messed up the names of alot of files, i am still renaming them, i had all of them in the shared folder individually, since then i created a folder for each artest and place all the new music into new folders reflecting the band name,if it has an extention .exe do not download it ! it is a program and not a music file,

I'm back and w/ new laptop yup it sure took long though.

So should I download Limewire again? My Ltp is new so I'm afraid of downloading it and then something bad could happen to it.:)

Welcome back. :)
Just be sure you have a decent anti-virus program program & anti-spyware, etc. As long as you are careful you should be fine.
I'd also suggest using an alternative to Windows Media Player. And do not seek WMA or WMV files. ;)
