Exclamation LimeWire 4.8.1 - REQUIRED Update?
On the main Limewire.com page it says:

"Security Update!! All LimeWire users of versions prior to 4.8 MUST upgrade."

Why must users upgrade? Is there some risk to the network for not doing so? What is the specific security feature that is such a 'must' this time. Is there something in the software from 4.8 that benefits Limewire 'the company' such as stats, or control of some type? Thanks.
