"Unable to find a license..."
 

I have just downloaded the basic version of LimeWire and once I tried to download songs, I encountered a problem.

I'll highlight the song, click download and a box pops up and says:

"LimeWire is unable to find a license for this file. Download anyway?

Please note: Limewire cannot monitor or control the content of the Gnutella network. Please respect your local copyright laws."

And then it has the standard "Yes" or "No" buttons.

Does anyone know why this happens and how I can stop it from happening so I can go about my downloading? It would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT:

So that everyone knows, I have already tried looking on the LimeWire website FAQs and it wasn't there, so I came here.

i am having this same problem, i clicked yes and now i cant download anything, i seee it in the searches but when i click download nothing happens...

Hmm. I see. As I was waiting for a reply I explored this category and found a few threads relating to my problem but they talk about how they clicked "No" and "Always use this answer" and then they weren't allowed to download anything. The question they asked was "How do I change this setting?". This is not the question I am asking.

I need to know if clicking "Yes" is safe and if not, how do I make it so this message doesn't pop up.

Check yes then check always use this answer

Is that safe though? By doing so could that ruin the program and/or my computer? That's what I really need to know.

I thank you for replying.

Yes it is safe to click the boxes is it safe to download a file that is copyrighted well it certanly isnt legal.
