My grandaughter just showed me how to download Limewire and I'm having a blast adding new music to listen to.
Is there a way that I can make cd's from these downloaded files?
I make cd's for myself from the ones that I borrow from the library using Realplayer. These are only for my use in my home and car. Is this something that I can get some help with? I am a computer novice and not a flying finger expert, but I am literate and able to follow instructions pretty well.

You can't burn cd's with limewire, you need a cd burning program. Your cd burner probably came with one. You will need to add the songs from LW to the burning program and then burn them. It should be pretty straight forward.

Here's a thread that will help get you started: burning ignorance isn't bliss ...
