That may be true and I am aware of this. I have some PR people looking into it for me. However, my primary purpose for the site is to let people know what I am doing. But thanks for the offer and I would be highly interested if your serious about following up on the offer to redesign of course you could take the credit for the design.

Thanks for your reply,

I responded to the person who posted this message and offered him the opportunity to redesign the site if he wanted to. I think most people probably understand now the site isn't intended to be a place for people to hang out it's just there to provide information about what we do. BTW I have a lot of new stuff online I'll be bringing up the servers this evening to access the content on Gnutella just do a search for [CBT, WMV, Full, EXE] or visit http://networking.leeware.com

I think that Lee's site is very useful. There is no question of that.

I also think that most porn sites are not done well. They are to busy and very irritating to the eye.

I just wondered if there is still a chance to get in trouble with the RIAA if I have taken all those files off my computer, and have uninstalled and gotten rid of LimeWire. I just did that today, so I didn't know if there was a way of them tracking all the stuff I had downloaded in the past.

thanks

[B]you know..this has been rumbling in the back of my mind for awhile now...and I have this really nutty idea about this all...

let's say you get caught, are found guilty, and then refuse to pay the fine...what happens then??? go to jail??? mwahahahahha...let's say everyone refuses to pay the fine...I really don't think there are enough prisons to hold all the ppl, let alone pay the cost to keep them prisoner...ahahahahahahhaha..

I imagine that the first thing they'd do is try to get the money through your employer via your wages. I suspect they'd also jack around your credit rating until you paid. We really don't do debtors jail anymore. Unless the sentence imposed by a judge gives you the option.

They collect the information in advance so deleting the files at this point is like being caught on camera with your hand in the cookie jar and thinking that leaving the kitchen will keep those investigating the matter from knowing it was you.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

However, There is a point in which they validate the content being served by a particular host unfortunately this is all done with in a very small windows of time so it may only be a matter of time before you hear something. I only suggest that if you have stopped sharing copyrighted information, consider continuing to support p2p by hosting non-infringing content. Trust me all of your legal issue regarding p2p use will magically disappear.

it seems that the content that catches most attention are mainstream audio and video content. the less top-ten-megastar a file is, the less likely the weasels at cogent, baytsp, etc. are going to search for it. in the long run this is going to help less well-known artists find an audience, because sharing their stuff is less risky.

of course, the safest way is to share content that is legal, which surprisingly is not just boring educationals and linux ISOs.

there's a ton of live performance recordings of popular artists over at furthur that can be legally shared. i donwloaded some content from there and am now sharing it both on furthur and limewire, these files are increasingly popular.

(www.furthurnet.com)

and then there's the artist promotion initiatives from bearshare and more recently limewire.

there's plenty of opportunity to share cool legal content, if you do some research.

and if youre really paranoid, try www.freenetproject.org.

If you enable your firewall after you're done using limewire, those popups should disappear....

You have to disable the firewall whenever you use Limewire next.
