if my penetration testing laptop didn't get infected by my friend being funny by loading a rootkit on it, i'd squash your claims, but i don't have floppies to use right now.


i believe theres a possibility people could post a fake limewire with spyware. remember the kazaa spyware infected version and the lite version without it? it could be like that.


post your proof and lets have an adult discussion about it, then i doubt they'll close this thread.



EDIT -- I think I found the "spyware".

LimeWire checks to see if you're online or something, its not calling home
