limewire 4.9 off Gnutella - caution
 
if you thought you might like a free version of limewire 4.9 Pro off Gnutella - think again. Curious as to why there were so many 'samey looking' versions, I got one - a quick scan of the zipped 851k file found it to contain a virus. Many people seem to have this on their pc too.

Thanks for the warning note...

There are MANY, MANY threads and posts here regarding
dialers
that are easy to D/L if you are not experienced and ALSO not paying careful attention !

There are currently 3 or 4 'basic sizes' for the garbage you are talking about...
They will almost always indicate a largish number of sources...

BUT, if you are trying to D/L a file that, somewhere in the depths of your skull, you know needs to be at least 2.8MBs or 697MBs or whatever,

Ya Gotta Be A Max-Dumbo to click on it for a DownLoad if it is nowhere near anything like a suitable size, right ???

If you hit a tree with your 'vehicle' don't bitch at the tree !
It was there and you 'were not' !

Same here.

It's a jungle, heh ?
:eek:
