Default paid for pro but don't seem to have it and keep getting upgrade messages

i paid for for Pro $52.92 dollars and am not sure as to what to do now. I keep getting "Do you want to upgrade to Pro" messages - so am assuming I'm not hooked up to Pro.

I'm not very computer literate so could you please explain in laymans terms what I'm suppossed to do in this situation.

Thanks.

LW pro costs $18.88 so I think you've been scammed. And you only have the LW Basic version not the pro version. I would advise you to cancel your transaction with your bank/credit company ASAP. See http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...5&pagenumber=1

Well, I've got the same problem except that I did pay the right amount to the right folk.

I'd been using the free version of Limewire for some time now and just noticed that the version I was using was quite old. I upgraded from 4.2 to 4.8 but seeing little improvement, realized that it was time to go "pro" and went right back and purchased that version.

If you pay for pro you will receive an email from customer support with a link to your personal downld page. You can check here: HERE (click on link) Otherwise you might not have got it from LW but a scam site.

Upgrade to pro or upgrade to 4.8.1? Version 4.8.0 & earlier to about 4.2 had a security issue. That's why people need to update.

Once you have found your personal downld page, then download the LW program & install it. You have either the 4.8.0 version or inadvertently installed the basic version.

Your personal downld page should look like this below:

Thumbs down I am tired of this. What the hell is going on?

Hi everybody,

This is Monica (loyal2bi@yahoo.com)and I am tired of this.

I became 6 months a member and I downloaded this WirePro. I just read all your mails and I have exactly all the problems you guys are explaning.

What the hell is all this about? Ofcourse I can't ask that money back anymore (52 Dollars) life time membership with upgreades and all if somebody has ripped me off. 6 months has passed and You know what: I have not even have any email (even once) from this company saying welcome and this is your username and password.

Not they tell me you are not a member. Who has my money then? The one who has my money, has to be found and has to be F;;;d.

i am tired of this note saying you have to upgrade. I had English version dwloaded and now I have suddenyly german menu and german interface infront of my eyes when I eneter LimeWire to download.

It is slow, very slow. It is just sucks.

I guess the company I bought, (I dont remember which company it was, but it might have been mymusicinc.com but i am not sure if paid them.

I need to go to my bank and see if they can find out to which company I paid that f;;; money.

Please help me. How can we prevent other people not going through the same ****?

Thanks you.

Please send me an email thanks.

If you're too lazy to become a forum member then we're too lazy to send you personal emails. As stated above, using your email as a username is against the forum rules. Anybody might come thru the forum & grab your email & add it to their spam list, etc.

Well it certainly wasn't LW who got your money. It was a scam site. And they give you the free version of LW, not the pro version. If you get LW from the official site then you know what you're getting.

BTW here's a list of scam sites people should beware of: Known Scam Sites
