When I got Limewire pro I purchased the lifetime unlimited access, I have a new computer and went to set up limewire pro and got a messege stating that if I bought my limewire pro over 6 months ago that my free downloads and support was over. My question is how is 6 months concidered to be lifetime membership?

You were scammed

Official limewire site is www.limewire.com and it clearly states that you get only 6 months of free updates

And this one (allthough it's probably far to late for you if you bought it that long ago)
