Trojans, Spyware, and Viruses How do I rid my computer of these things, so limewire will run regularly again? :shoot: Also, will downloading 'limewire pro' off of the limewire network with out purchasing it work? |
Anti-virus: avast! AVG free Avira Antivir Antispyware etc: ad-ware __(FREE) Spybot - Search & Destroy __(FREE) AVG Antispyware (formerly Ewido) I'm sure that lots of people try to download Pro off the network. Whether they get a good, clean version of Pro is another matter:rofl: Why would anyone be so ch_eap, anyway? LW Pro's a great app & the small payment for Pro goes towards the future development of LW. Personally, I think anyone who tries to download Pro from the network deserves to get a useless, malware infested piece of crap that won't download a single file:cheesy: |
Could you be more rude? You're basically hoping that people get a virus! You do realize that you can get bogus files, corrupt files, and viruses with the LimeWire Pro right? |
You can get them with any program but we're still not going to agree with downloading bogus software off the network. You just can't be sure the hacked "Pro" versions of LimeWire or anything else are safe to use, especially in LimeWire's case because the source code is available to the criminals as well as the rest of us. Anyway, the last thing you want when you're already fighting off worms is a version of LimeWire you can't trust, especially as the free version is so easy to get. The six tools in birdy's post should fix that infestation and the latest version of LimeWire (4.13.8) is both newer and stronger than any older version, pro or not, partly because it can use this half-million rule hostiles list. …and of course we could be more rude, but where's the fun in that? http://www3.telus.net/Aaron_Walkhouse/tongue3.gif |

You get my coveted dumb-azz of the week award ! HOW... HOW the hell do you interpret the post from birdy as being 'rude' ? Further, you parade your general ignorance by implying that there is some increased 'threat' by using LimeWire Pro... ALL forms of downloading ANYTHING can be harmful... |
Avast May I add a suggestion re: Anti-Virus s'ware ? I very strongly recommend Avast ... It is very 'powerful' and the updates are automatic for both virus definitions AND program updates... It is very 'economical' in CPU and memory usage... And does NOT cause problems on a ShutDown of your OS... Main tip with it is to always use the 'Advanced' display... Oooh, and Adaware is excellent. But, if you wisely elect to use the 'Pro' version, be cautious in your use of Adwatch... It does require some experience to use it properly and it can cause you considerable grief re: 'legitimate' alterations of your Registry settings. |
Where Do I Find Icon For Posting Questions???? I have looked and can't find the icon for posting questions on these forums. All I see is being able to post a reply to other questions. Please advise a confused newbie. Thanks Fishtiger |
Easy... If you open a Forum Page... Meaning, go to the Forum itself and NOT to a specific post... On the upper left you will see a box that says, New Thread Click on that and go for it ! Have fun... |
i have to put my 2 sence in lime wire and lime wire pro are garbage program's frostwire is the same as limewirepro exactly and it's free. i wouldn't use either one to be honest. i would download ares from sourceforge.net that beat's all three of them program's hand's down. i do recommend not downloading ares anywhere but from sourceforge though due to all the fake copies where the site want's payement when it's free. as for limewirepro it should never be sold. the source code is free the file's are free and further developement of what? they are going to improve it or not without being paid. when you get sued by the riaa you think they are really gonna care you paid for your program? answer's no!!!! if you must be hypocrytical then you shouldn't be downloading file's period but paying for them, thru i tunes or another such site. do not put someone down or make such a comment, such as oh that's wrong to download a file without paying for it, when in fact this entire forum is based on stealing yes i said stealing from artists or programmer's who sell their product's online. you really should judge yourself before judging other's. oh and don't try that crap i'm only making back up's of the file's i already own, because we all know, all you have to do is insert the disc and pay yes i said quit being cheap and pay for an application that will allow you to rip a backup copy of your legal purchase. hate me as you will, i'm just pointing out the fact's. moral incase you missed it, don't make comment's when you yourself are dong the exact same thing rather it be software or music |
