Using Limewire with no worries?

First i would like to say hello to everyone since i am new here.

I would like to ask if there is anyway to use limewire and still be totaly safe? (Not that i am sharing copyrighted materials or anything ).

I have heard people can see your "IP adress" when you use limewire and i find this irritating.
Do they still see my IP if i donth share files? (turn of the sharing part)
Can anyone see my IP when i am downloading files or stand in line to download a file?

So to make this question easy, HOW do i use limewire 100% anonomysly? So that no one could ever trace me or track me when using limewire.

Could the use of "TOR" be an idea?

Thanks in advance for answers
