Gnutella Forums - A virus thats spreading quickly

Respect to you UKBobBoy01, for attempting to bring calm rational to this discussion ! ;)
Just want to note that although new to the forum, that doesn't mean we are new to Limewire, P2P systems or the computer in general !
Also - these formus ARE here for newbies to learn about these things - how else would that happen ? Everyone must start somewhere, right? If the comments make "Senior members " like Sphinx frustrated - then stay out of it unless you have something productive to add. Wouldn't you say that education, not degradation, is the way to go ?
That being said - everyone is made fully aware at the time of downloading and installing this type of software that they are at their own risk when downloading ANY type of file - regardless of size. You cannot blame Limewire for a virus that YOU may have downloaded. Limewire provides the means - the choice is ours. Use it WISELY !
One more thing - you are right about misunderstandings occuring largely because of our respective geographical locations; however I am more aware of that than most, being British and residing in the US. An insult is clearly insulting !
Live and learn all ! :D
