LimeWire is a peer-to-peer file sharing (P2P) client for the Java Platform, which uses the Gnutella network to locate files as well as share files.

Answer 6

Limewire is like ITunes but free. And illegal. I know friends who have gotten caught and had to pay a $5,000 fine. When you use Itunes, you are also paying the artist for their song. But if you really want to use limewire. Go to limewire.com and download it on to your computer. Oh, and limewire slows down your computer hella and you can get viruses onto your computer really easily by downloading it.

Limewire is one of the P2P (peer to peer) file sharing programs. others such as Bearshare; Ares; eMule; Morpheus; Bit Torrent; WinMX; Shareaza; eDonkey; Kazaa; etc. (though some are inactive). these are the programs to be used for downloading images/photos; documents; videos; softwares; songs; etc that is shared by a user on the network. you will be downloading the things you want directly from any users that is available and has those things that you wanted to download. using this kind of program has no guarantee of good quality and mostly products without any license. thus a particular thing that you are going to download may or may not be in full or not complete.

if you like to use limewire, you have to download the program from the limewire com. the free version is the basic and the purchaseable one is the pro. once you have downloaded the program, you have to run it for installation and complete the process. if the installation is successful, it will ask you if you want to activate it right away. then you have to click OK and start using the program. (if you have a firewall, it may block the downloading process, so try to check it before downloading and unblock limewire. or in some cases, if the computer you are using is controlled by the administrator, you may not be able to download it too, so you need permission, check it also).

once the limewire is active, there are buttons to click depending on what you are going to download. if you like music, then you have to click "audio".

NB: after you download music, docs, images, etc from limewire or any other programs; and or even on the net, you have to scan it first before running/opening/playing as it may contain virus.

<>to the one who answered that limewire contain virus, that person is completely naive of what he/she is talking about. anything can be contaminated with virus or is attached with virus not only from limewire, but as i said, in the whole network. you only need more precautions, thus, scan for virus before opening anything.
