Hello!

No spyware is included in the Mac versions. However in earlier versions like 2.4.4 there was adware included. These where in the form of static Quicktime files that was installed by the installer in the same folder as LW itself. Basically they where banners in the bottom of the LW window. Now however not even that is included the only thing at the bottom of the LW window is a link prompting you to support the LimeWire team by going PRO.

Probably you have some other software on your computer that can be seen as spyware by your schools server. can you not get out on the Internet either?. Maybe the fact that you are using a Mac could cause these problems. Talk to your serveradministrator who maybe could fix this problem.

Spybot is for Windows only.
