That is the way it works. When you install limewire and download something it makes a folder called shared. And that's were all your files go. That's the shared folder it makes and selects. And about the legitimate question. Where did you get limewire from? If you got it from limewire.com it's legitimate. I hope this helps you.

minty1,

That's a scam site.The only official site is here: Lime Wire » Home. Anything else is a scam and should be avoided.
