Default Adware/Spyware threat

Like many others, when I first heard about limewire, I was more than intrigued by the thought of a "No-spyware/adware" guarentee. It sounded great to use for downloading music and whatnot, so I went ahead and downloaded it. I'll say this...it's awesome ****ing software, however.....upon running McAfee pest patrol, I found over 50 different pests bundled with the software. I was wondering if maybe the Limewire staff would like to help me out in how to actually get the adware that "doesn't come" with their software out without deleting it, because I love using Limwire. However, if the adware is going to stay with the software, then I am no longer going to use it, not for personal reasons, but for security risks. Thanx for any responses.
