If you will take a few minutes and look into other posts, you will notice that limewire is open source, which means all you need is a java compiler and you can take that part out if you don't like it. I've also seen some versions of limewire with the ad's already removed from them mentioned in some posts this week. Also, if you will read some messages from the devs you will find that the program displaying adds in limewire is not spyware, even though AdAware tells you it is. My sugestion would be to learn a little bit of java and take out the ad part or find an ad free version if you still want to use the limewire interface. If anyone has a link to ad-free versions of limewire, it would be helpful if you could post them here.
