limewire safe and legal

[Blackhorse 70V]

There is nothing unlawful about sharing files that are not copyrighted or in the public domain. Laws vary a bit from country to country.

It is safe to start using LW; the default settings will prevent you from downloading most copyrighted stuff. You'll want to search and read a bit more in these forums so you can safely expand your music collection without depending on LW's filters, which are probably more strict than you need.

Thanks for your reply . I had limewire basic for the last 4 yrs with no problems then a friend of mine told me to try bitlord download dvd movies
so i did and about 6 months later i recieved a email from my isp AT&T saying i am using some sort of illegal downloads to stop right now or i can be prosecuted. this freaked me out so i unistalled bitlord to be safe then
i also thought maybe it can also be Limewire so i unistalled that also because i was scared to get in trouble but i just thought i would get other limewire users input to see if they ever had any problems with it . so i guess i feel better now and will install the basic limewire just for musice downloads only . i am in California what do you think?
