Does anyone use limewire?
I can't seem to find a definitive answer as the whether it installs spyware/adware or not. Every site says something different. Anyone here have some insight? Thanks. :)

4. thanks guys
I currently use soulseek, which is amazing for music, but I've heard limewire is where it's at for tv shows.

7. Limewire is terrific
It's doesn't put anything on your hard drive, but if you're nervous about it, just run Spybot and AdAware and SpywareBlaster when you're done.

Get the premium Limewire, by the way. I think it costs $17, or something like that, but it's much cleaner.

It's terrific.
