Only A Hobo, appreciate your reply and the links you posted for me - cheers pal.

I hadn't actually heard of Lime Wire until yesterday. I had been recommended to E Mule through a friend and had gone to the emule-downoading.com site which you mention as a scam site on another thread.

Unlike me to get scammed. I'll have a word with the bank tomorrow and hope they can do something about the payment, though I'm more worried that these *******s have my debit card details.

I'll have another look round this site and tread a little more carefully before downloading Lime Wire again. Anyway, will do so only after sorting out this mess.

PC seems fine now, but it's been an uncomfortable and irritating day. Thanks again !
