 limewire works with vista

This opens up file sharing features with in vista. Just like in XP.
Go to Microsoft and search for UAC concearning Vista's Security features.
Hope this helps.. Dr. X  | I agree with Dr X the latest limewire does work with vista Business edition and ultimate. These are the two platforms I have tested it with.
The only thing is I did not have to do anything special to get it to work, just get the latest java and your away.
Some flaws well only 2 that concerned me was: 1/ I could not view a partially downloaded video file, (which means u could end up with crap).
2/ search results were no where as good as with XP, in fact i found it dismal in returning accurate numbers and titles.
Oh yeah and it was a little slow starting up.
I have gone back to XP because of these reasons and have enjoyed my limewire experience to the fullest again. If anyone knows of any solutions to the first problem I would love to know as it frustrated me.
thanks to all this is my first time on a blog.
