Hey Ultracross, thanks for the info...makes me feel better.. Steve |
I really hope you guys have an anti virus protection program while downloading? Thats one of the first things you do before logging in to Gnutella. |
desmoface, what i ment was that there are some people that have a file whether it be a .exe .cob or anyother than may have/be a virus. These people will change the file name to something like TuPac.mp3 making others believe it is an mp3. asdfgh1224, sorry my mistake i was thinking of another p2p program i use at the time i posted that. Sphinx, First things that get installed on my computers are the Anti-virus programs and anything else to do with security.. You can never be to sure if or when you'll get a virus/trojan or worm. ultracross, Nice listing you put together..this may help those that are new to p2p programs and don't have a full understanding of which file extension are the ones that could possibly have a virus. |
No AntiVirus App Guys This is a sensible thread with some very good advice but, just looking around this forum, there are still loads of LW user that don't use an anti-virus app. And guess what, they blame LW when their PCs get wrecked by viruses and Trojans. Some people are definately weird :(. UK Bob |

You can always tell if you take the time how to spot a virus before downloading and I have yet to get one in a MP3 file. |

You know, we all use pirated software and LW is one of the best ways to get it and you know it. If you are not using pirated software, well..... you must be a saint!!! I know it can't be discussed here, for obvious reasons, and I do not promote nor condone piracy. But Sphinx, don't tell us: "good luck finding a crack or serial...", we always do!!! And what about the music files? they don't need cracks or serial. Does that make them legal to download in the US? Huh, Granpa? If it is illegal, then LW should shut down as 99.9% of the music going through it is illegal! So is the software. So let's not talk about legalities. It's like trying to bullshit ourselves, LOL. |
You mean the Gnutella net should shut down which it may be forced to shut down. Many other P2P nets already have been forced to shut down.Then LimeWire / Bearshare / Frostwire / Sharezza / Phex / etc. will all be shut down and thus the software useless. LimeWire in it self is legal what any of us may do with it may or may not be legal we each have to make a choice. And any copyrighted material is Illegal to download in the U.S. unless you have a license for it. I or no one else in this forum is trying to B.S. ourselves or you make your own choice but if you do choose to be involved in Illegally activities do not talk about it in this forum it is against the rules. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/announ...p?forumid=7 1.
