Hi, I have used limewire for a long time and have never experienced many problems, until recently.
Lately I have tried to download music and when i double click on the desired file (or simply click "download") I am given a link to another site informing me about other downloads etc
[such as this link: (http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/musi...html?aff=gnnap)] and not allowing me to download the actual file.
This could be due to my recent instalment of Firefox opposed to using Microsoft Internet Explorer however I am unsure.
Please if anyone has any idea what is going on please help me to solve this,
thank you!

Ok, just uninstalled Firefox, now I am unable to download any files whatsoever.
HELP!

This has been discussed a lot lately. Perhaps you couldn't find the forum search button. But the answer is to get the newest LW version & it stops these spam files having this effect. http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml

When you see search results like 100 or one, 99 for next, etc. go further down the list & choose those with 10 or 20 sources. The Overpeers, etc. are spamming the network with such files when people search for copyright material. Those with 100, etc. are fake.

Is there anyway to fix this problem without upgrading? My brother paid for a subscription with 4.9 and it's still good for quite some time, so I don't want to upgrade now. I would get the turbo but I actually have no method for paying (going to university and I don't have a credit card or a job)

EDIT: I just found out that what I have was probably free. ****. He got scammed :/
