If you want to be sure those MAFIAA misfits never latch onto you, disable
sharing your downloads folder and also partial file sharing. That way, you will
never share anything that you downloaded until you choose to do so on purpose.

Sharing the download folder is controlled in Tools/Options/Sharing (remove it
from the list and uncheck "Share finished downloads") and partial file sharing is
in Tools/Options/Uploads. Do those and you're practically bulletproof because
they won't be able to see you at all.

doesn't that encourage freeloading ??? if everyone was to do it there would be no more gnutella network.

Hello all, what can i say I'm new to this lol
I'm just trying to find out the legalatis of this file sharing that my son is using on Limewire.

I have disabled the file sharing as posted above, now what is the legality of downloading from the internet, my son has been downloading alsorts and I have just started to download stuff that I have on record as its a lot quicker than ripping them from the record player, so in theory I am just backing up material that i have paid for.....ta

Not necessarily because i've downloaded loads Things like [edit] but they are NOT COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE in the UK so i'm safe from them go me go me
