as someone who uses limewire a lot and find it a very stable and effective search/share tool I'm often puzzled as to why it never seems to be seen as 'hip' or 'cool' - instead I read sooooo many recommendations for winmx, bearshare, kazaa, morpheus gnucleus, audiogalaxy etc etc - none of which ever work even moderately well (if at all)for me - all too often limewire seems to be dumped on - I don't 'get it' at all

any ideas ??? (yes I know all about the so called spyware and that certainly doesn't explain the phenominon - hi there altnet service providers)

Cheers, Mark
