Hiya, bluiz1955, and welcome...
Now the bad stuff..
Yup... It was a con... A scam site...
Might not believe this but, no matter what country you are in it is wise to report every detail to INTERPOL... Yes, INTERPOL.
Sorry for you, really.
I'm with Peerless here (and on a lot of other points, as well) that Limewire should simply be avoided.
If one really must have Limewire for some obscure, and probably inexcusable reason, then it is best to simply D/L a free copy from OldVersion... The link is in my sig below...
There is absolutely no rational reason to be concerned about acquiring a 'legal' copy of Limewire Pro... Ha Ha Ha... There is nothing special about it.
Peerless' comments and mine may seem a little strange coming from mods here but we have all had it re: LW... It is simply insufficient, insupportable rubbish by any of today's standards.
Phex or the 'special' 5.x.x series of BearShare that is mentioned within these forums is the way to go for Gnutella Network ops.
Remember that the Torrent community and the Gnutella Network Community are still very much of a symbiotic relationship... Some things are better with one 'system' and other things are better with the 'other'.
The idea is to always feed/seed BOTH !
Again, sorry you were shafted, but take minor comfort in the fact that you are one of an emormous number of people who have had the same dreadful experience... Big deal, eh... Doesn't really help !
Try Phex ! Hey, the actual developers are HERE and AVAILABLE !!!!!!!
Price is right, also !
