LW Basic is free. LW pro offers 6 mths of free updates but it sounds like your 6 mths is up. Get it here http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml

Or better still get the beta with the new spam filter (not perfected yet): http://www.limewire.com/english/content/beta.shtml

Hi andybate,
Sorry to tell you but it sounds like you've been scammed. As LOTR said, you only pay for the pro version & that covers you for 6 months - there's no 2 year deal.

Have a read of the sticky above (in red) about membership. It might be too late to get your money back (how long ago did you pay?) but the sticky gives you links for complaints.

Cheers

Wow that's a lot of money. It should only have cost you about £10.6 for Pro. And I'm sure you'd find you only have LW Basic, not LW Pro. To check, Shows About LW Pro (click on link)
