What is spyware?
 
I'm new to limewire and I see some download titles say warning and also allusions to "spyware." What do I have to be nervous/cautious about? Any recommended precautions as I start uploading/downloading?

Thanks!

I personally don't think you need to be worried about this too much, just as long as you know what you are downloading you'll be fine.

I don't know if you will read this article, but the link is below and it explains what spyware is and precautions about how to get around it.
