What there is, is an inability to sway the "true believer" rather than any genuine examination of the facts. LimeWire IS spyware, provided one recalls that one definition of "spyware" is software that "calls home" with out the user's knowledge or permission.

This LimeWire does all the time: how else could it find that an update is available? How else could deleted themes suddenly reappear? But then Saddam was intimately involved with the Attack too, I guess.
What else is it saying when it "calls home," huh?

Look, I'd post some Ethereal captures, but no one seems to be interested in facts. In fact, lets just stop all discussion of it and close the thread, and while we're at it, lets just ax any further mention of it, and call that "free speech."

LimeWire IS spyware, period.
