Is there a phone number somone can call to get some kind of person to help walk them through the site?

Also, are you able to preview music or video before you download it?

How do I make the best use, legally, of the money I can't get refunded for this program?

There's no LW support phone number.

You can't preview any file before downloading. There's no central server, you download files from other Gnutella users.
You can preview a file during download, say after 10-15%, then kill the download if the file's not what you're looking for or if quality is bad. Check video & *program files (music isn't rated often) before download with Bitzi. Right click on a search result > advanced > look up file with Bitzi. If the file's been rated, you'll see other users' opinions of it.

If you were scammed into paying for a free version of LW, you should contact your bank/CC company & report this. They may be able to cancel the transaction & will be able to advise you about whether to cancel your card. Some people have been able to get a refund from scammers...read through the threads below.

*zip, exe & rar files aren't to be trusted as they're often infected. Program files which are clean usually won't be of much use anyway, as they'll need a code or CD to run.
