I thought since I paid for LimeWire Pro the spyware would not happen. All I have encounterd since I have installed it virus after virus, spyware and more spyware. Any Suggestions?

I also use Limewire Pro (V4.4.1) and I do not suffer the problems you seem to have.

It could be that you have not set the filters in LW to exclude certain file types, e.g. *.exe, *.bat, *.scr, etc., nasties can be hidden in them.

You have given very little information, can you explain your LW setup, this may indicate why you are collecting viruses and spyware.

Also, have you got any protection software, such as anti virus, firewall, anti spyware, etc?

PS. I have attached my LW filter screen, this may help you to set up yours.
