I don't know how to start over or even if I must....I don't understand why I just can't reinstall and if I must pay, I will pay but if I start over all those songs I had listed will be gone?

Your downloads are saved to your computer. Providing you haven't changed the location for saving to somewhere silly (eg within program files), your files will be safe if you reinstall LW. To check - in LW go tools > options > saving. The default location for saving (Windows) is C:\Documents and Settings\your name\Shared...that's a safe location

When you buy Pro from the official site www.limewire.com your email address is added to the database. Once your Pro is more than 6 months or a year old, depending how long you've bought Pro for, your email address will be removed from the database unless you buy Pro again. Your email address will only be in the database if you've bought Pro from the official site.

When your Pro is getting close to expiring, you'll see a notice on your Pro personal download page...offering you a small discount to renew Pro

Default I'm a Newbie

To all you Gurus out there,

I am a newbie to these foroums. I recently upgraded to Pro 4.18 through a third party (file only) and I am unable to access LW support because I do not have the e-mail address "used to purchase Limewire Pro"? Any ideas how i can register with LW??

I'm a bit confused - did you ever buy Pro from the official site Lime Wire » Official Website & Free Download, BitTorrent « ?

Membership? - **BEWARE** - Download p2p Clients ONLY Thru Official Sites (click on link)

get your $$$ BACK!!! (music members)

If you didn't buy from the official site (payment to LimeWire LLC) then you're not eligible for Pro support from the official site

There's no registration as such... when you pay LimeWire LLC for Pro, your email address goes into the database so that it's recognised until your Pro benefits run out. But if you've bought Pro from a scam site, your email address won't ever go into the database & so it won't be recognised.

Default Too good to be true...

I actually got the .exe file from an Ebay Store for a couple of bucks (see link below); I thought I was getting the full gambit (i.e. support and all), but after reading the ad again, I see that those features are inconspiquosly missing?? I guess the old saying is true :"If it looks too good to be true than it probably isn't"

Thanks for your help.

* Link removed, in case others get conned!!
