Default Nothing but corrupt files!

I'm not happy at all with LimeWire Pro, and don't notice any difference between the Pro and the Basic. The all the files are either corrupt, telling me to go to another website to download (purchase) a program to view the film, or a completely different film. I realize the charge for a year's membership isn't going break my finances, but I don't notice any difference whatsoever and am very disappointed. Maybe I've done something wrong in downloading the Pro version...I really hope so

Sounds more to me like the choice of videos you chose to download. Any video file that asks you to go to a particular site to download a trojan codec is a dud! Beware!

First off ...I HATE HATE HATE HATE this new version of Limewire. The old version was much better, easier to view the files, search, see search results etc. Most times when I'm searching it does NOT say the file type. IF, and that's a big IF, the files download, they are corrupt and won't open. Most times they don't download at all. Never had so many bad files when using the old version. Either something with the searching and design of this is allowing it or there are FAR too many hacked crap files. Either way..IT SUCKS!

I have to agree with Nunzie I hate this version too. When I search for a simple song like the new b*m bom p*w from b** eyed p**s I get 3 results. Everything I search for brings up 3 choices. I would love to have my old version back again.
