Interesting scenario
 
Ok, ok I profoundly apologise if this has been expressed before but to be honest i'm not technically minded/arsed to read every thread. Let me explain my situation to ya -

#Havn't got limewire yet (worried about virii)
#Had Zone alarm/AVG/ad-aware for ages
#Only intend to use limewire for mp3's
#Not bothered about any other format
#Know that most mp3's range from 3 - 7mb's in size
#Don't know much about virii or worms or whatever on P2P
#Concerned about spyware/adverts


Will I be safe on Limewire? What tips can you give me?


Cheers lads
