   I joined Lime Wire back in 2006. I bought a so called 'LIFE TIME MEMBERSHIP" of the Pro Version. I've updated it several times. One of those times was on 12/18/2009. That was three yrs. after I purchased it. I went to update it again to their newest virsion & they told me that their LIVE TIME membersip was for tech. support only & it was only good for 3 yrs. Notice it was AFTER 3 yrs. when I did an update. I paid $ 22.46 for the Lifetime Membership & an extra $14.95 for the pro version. They WILL NOT honor that agreement & I cannot get the pro update. I was completely misled. I remember when I first ordered it they tacked on Spy Remover for $9.95 which I was totally unaware of ordering at the time. Most of been in the fine print, like everything else. I called my credit card & had it removed. They are trying to tell me I got my money back for pro version. I did not get money back for that & how come if I didn't pay for pro version was able to use it all these yrs. I always thought Lifetime meant till I leave this earth, NOT THREE YRS.! If you use their site be careful. I've downloaded many viruses from them.

   Like Netscape, Napster and Aol software, this baby went to pasture a very long time ago. It had its day in the sun when you could download music. Now, its just a dinosaur on life support.

   Limewire now uses AVG's scanning engine for security purposes. Note: Limewire using AVG's scanning engine will not conflict with your resident AV.
   
   And I have to agree with these reviewers that P2P software including LimeWire is being misused for copyright infringement and it should be used for corporate or home businesses. If you're using LimeWire, avoid downloading the fake ICPP Copyright Rogue, and other infected files that can corrupt your critical system files, including Parite, Sality, Virut, etc.

   If you ever need to intentionally infect a computer for testing, its the best source I know of for getting malware samples. Beyond that, it's useless.
