    360baike: I see you are still spamming all the betanews reviews for P2P with that garbage Usenext which is a well-known scam. Thanks, but I have a REAL usenet provider so UseNext can go the way of 3WPlayer.

    This new release of Limewire seems to filter more than previous versions (I.E., I get less 'fakes' in the search results) but there are still unrelated search results. I think the Gnutella network is in it's death throes.

    I abhor Limewire as much as the next bloke, in fact I probably detest the app more than most, it has an appalling GUI, the people who bring it out do not give a damn what the customer thinks and it is everything else that I do not like.

    But what it does NOT do is give you a virus, the program itself merely allows you to share files....if you are stupid enough to download and open a file without doing a virus check, then that is entirely YOUR FAULT.

    The rule of use for Limewire is exactly the same as any other file sharing app....simply put; 'DO NOT DOWNLOAD PROGRAMS', and 'CHECK MOVIES ON BITZI FIRST'.

    Yes Johnny (or whatever your current name is), if you download a virus from Limewire.....IT IS YOUR FAULT!

    And if you do not want adult content.....FILTER IT OUT, the option is available.

    Yes , if you got few understanding what your downloading and don't know how to use junk filter correctly and don't have any brains and no virus protection then you will get your PC infected.
    That's what ya get when you hurry downloading illegally!
    Wan't songs then buy CD or use Itunes and support the artist!

    Limewire is bloatware , adds junk and temporary files what aren't needed + Programs written in Java take to much computer resources.
    Azureous also takes 120mb Ram when Utorrent takes only 10mb Ram for same speed :P
