I'm really not concerned about Limewire anymore. I have decided thats it in my best interested not to use it as a host as I had great intentions of doing, but once I seen someone could connect to my computer and start downloading files I clearly removed from "Sharing", It was time for me to stop using it as a host. I assume someone had an old "filelist" that allowed them to get to the file/s I had removed from sharing.
It's also my understanding there are no refunds for this program and thats alright too. It seems like I have a bad habit of learning things the hard way and it ALWAYS seems to come out of my pocket. Such is life!
