Default Pro Upgrade that is asking to buy again

I paid for and have pro 4.126. Today Limewire asked me to update. When I did it went to the standard version and is asking me to upgrade to pro. I am already a registered and paid pro user. It now states that my email is not listed (*********). What do I do now? Please help.

How long ago did you buy Pro, who did you pay for Pro & how much did you pay? Please give us this info as we're trying to help you

Up until very recently, a Pro payment entitled people to 6 months of free updates & email support (they've just introduced a 1 year deal). If you bought Pro from a site other than the official site Lime Wire » Official Website & Free Download, BitTorrent « or if your Pro benefits are out of date...your email address won't be in the database any more. Your email address will show up as invalid.

What people don't seem to realise (yes, I know it should be written on the website) is that they need to save & back up their Pro installers.

We agree totally...
Post your complaints over at the limewire org forums, some of the developers frequent there and if enough people complain they may do something about it...

Diana, Please do as Wondering Why has suggested. This has gotten out of control and the more people that hit them with this problem the better the chances of getting something done, I hope

That padlock notice you see at the top of your searches is to notify you of a particular search result that contains a virus...
It's a 75.7 KB .exe & shows up as "Urgent LW update - download & install now". If people download that thing they could end up infected. To try to prevent careless people from downloading a dangerous file, the warning banner was added to LW's interface.

The padlock symbol doesn't apply to music or video etc, only to LW updates...
