Is LimeWire safe from unwanted things like virus, etc.?

I know Filetopia claims to be free from spyware and adware and I know eMule claim to be free from threats.



But how about, Kazaa (not sure boout spelling) and LimeWire?

LimeWire is not the safest place you can download viruses or other treats, that affect your computer performance.

Stop stealing music...then you don't need to worry about getting viruses from peer-to-peer software.
Limewire is great if you know what type of files to download. If you are downloading any file other than a picture, make sure it is greater than 1000kb because if it is lower than that it is probably a virus. also you can scan your programs after you download them with an anti virus program
ANYTHING you download can have viruses! Use your judgment. A major software package that's only 2MB probably has a virus and lots of trash in it. A full movie thats less than 50MB is probably a porn clip named as something else. Some Audio clips (WMA, MP3) have come through for me with viruses (that my software deleted). Etc.



Just keep your virus and spyware blockers updated and active whenever you're downloading. It seems that almost nothing today is immune from being preloaded with a bug.
