Limewire installer on OSX deletes ALL files on disks!!!! Hi!
If I knew about this bug I would NEVER install/use Limewire:
When installing Limewire for OSX to a partition on my machine (the partition I installed to was made for a separate OS9.1 boot, not the Classic), Limewire DELETED *ALL FILES* ON BOTH THE PARTITION AND ANOTHER DISK!!!! (Yes, another DISK, not partition...) NOT ONE SINGLE FILE WAS LEFT!
I lost all my pics from my digital camera on the computer. (Luckily most important pics were backed up on CD) and music projects with the band I plays in, that I havenŽt backed up... Everything was gone... How can Limewire upload such a crap-installer like that? I HATE Limewire! How can they put up a installer so crappy? Surely almost not tested at all?
I tried to reboot to one of the partitions that was deleted, but the machine just started on the OS9 system that was on the OSX partition...
I tried to find the files in Terminal, but no. I guess they are lost forever...
I am sorry Limewire, but this was a too big bug for me to swallow... IŽll try to find another P2P for my Mac...
