I just got some kind of "urgent" message from a company called "Evidence Eliminator".. at first it terrified me, then I started wondering if it was just a marketing ploy to sell their file-removal software.. It gave my IP number, my ISP and said I was under investigation by my ISP!! At first I panicked thinking they found some MP3's or know that I log onto this program... It goes on to tell of the U.S. Government installing "black boxes" at ISPs to track people's internet surfing, downloading, etc... Has anyone here ever heard of this???

Have any of you gotten these pop-ups (it took over my whole screen!)? Is it just a marketing ploy because of the recent RIAA investigations??? I was thinking I might have to change my ISP..

Has anyone heard of these? If anybody knows anything about this, pleeease tell me.. thanks

If you enable your firewall after you're done using limewire, those popups should disappear....

You have to disable the firewall whenever you use Limewire next.
