Dear Wallace6
You have made a number of mistakes in your assumptions;
1) You assume that you got your LW Basic from the Limewire company, well you didn't, you went to a scam site and got conned.
How do I know this? You are not the first to complain of this and, if you read through this forum, you will find many, many novice users like yourself who have done exactly the same thing.
Some novices don't even know or remember which scam site they went to.
2) I suspect you were looking for a site that you could download music, films or games for a cheap price, so you went searching via Google.
Google is paid by the scammers to list first (or second) their scam sites whenever someone makes "search queries" the same as or similar to the one you made.
3) You believed the site when it offered you unlimited downloads if your joined their "lifetime" club.
No company or organisation can offer unlimited downloads, the copyright owners would want to control how and when their stuff was released, and the "lifetime club" does not exist. And by the way, the extra software that has been foisted on you are all bogus.
And you should have guest by now that Limewire did not get your money, instead you gave your money to internet parasites.
Now, you should contact your credit card company and inform them that you have been conned out of your money by a site set up to fleece novices out of their money. As most CC companies have an anti-fraud scheme you should be able to get your money back.
Next time when you go internet shopping you should do some research first and make sure you are dealing with a reputable company. Scam sites have never been reputable and can be easily sussed out.
