I was ripped off I feel stupind for falling for an internet scam but I did. This company is sponsoring links at the top of google when you search for LimeWirew. I was charged $34.80 for nothing. I really thought I was on the official LimeWire website. I am going to try and dispute the charge with my Bank. When I signed up, I never even checked on any "terms of service" or anything like that. The website link is: http://www.limewire-downloading.com/ What a rip off! They do a good job of making you think they are associated with LimeWire. Sheesh! |

You Were scammed, Limewire basic is free! There's no extras with it. LW Pro Cost $18.88US and comes with 6 month free updates. Thats it no frills. At the end of 6 months you have the option to sign up for an additional 6 months of updates at a lower rate, but you can keep using limewire for as long as you want. Contact your bank/CC company and dispute the charges.They should have a dept that handles this type of thing. Get the official LW Here: LimeWire Additional reading about scam sites here: **WARNING ** BEWARE** - Download p2p Clients ONLY Thru Official Sites You are not alone my friend. Many people get scammed everyday. Next time research something befor you buy, espically over the internet. Good luck.

If your using windoze uninstall limewire fron the add /remove programs in the control panel (Start>Control Panel>Add/Remove programs). The one you downloaded may be corrupt or have spyware/malware on it. If you want the official version. Get it here: LimeWire

You still got scammed. here's a link to limewires refund policy: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/refund.shtml Did you try to explain to your CC company that they sold you something that you can get for free. You were decieved. If they won't help you, try to contact the site you bought LW from and tell them you want your money back. Here's a link to a post of how one member got his money back: get your $$$ BACK!!!(music members) Good luck
