And "bumps" only take up space on this forum; they don't ring anyone's bell.
The search results wherein your search is echoed back to you with something added on is simply a spam generator. After seeing my search results always including "...has orgasm on webcam", I simply added 'orgasm' to my filter. (When it's an mp3, I imagine one can only listen to said webcam orgasm).
You did the right thing. Files in your Shared (downloads) folder that you did not request should be deleted. I don't know what's in them, (perhaps they really are data and backup files); I'm not gonna look.
If you're dl'ing only mp3s and AVIs, then any strange files that come with them really are strange (delete them).
If you download torrents you may see strange files that actually belong there. (If you're downloading only via the LW search results you're not doing torrents; don't worry about it.) If you are doing torrents, stop torturing yourself with LW (use uTorrent or Azureus). Getting Started Using LimeWire - Gnutella Forums is chock full of good info. |
Thanks for the reply. Yeah sorry I get a little antsy sometimes. However though I have another question.
I was searching for a song through limewire, couldn't find it, then decided to shut off limewire since I wasn't gonna use it at the moment(after all I hear somebody can make your computer download stuff while your AFK or something). I go into my limewire folder and in the "Incomplete" folder(which is where I saw the .bak and .dat files from the first incident as I said in my very first post up there) I see a .dat file called "Downloads.dat". I deleted this. Was this normal for this to appear or something?
