disable sharing
 

I know it's legal to download files in Canada but not to share. How do I disable sharing in LimeWire?

So you wanna take but not give for free?!

Go to Tools>Options>Sharing & press the remove button on all shared files & pres APply button ALso go to Tools>Options>Uploads>Basic & untick Allow partial file sharing & press apply.
Just a small warning, free loaders tend to get filtered out from many users & thus you's never connect to a certain % of users, particularly those who have many many files. Those who don't upload don't get as good search & downld results. But I'm sure you've configured that in your decision & I understand the pressure.
