Hi...I haven't use Limewire for a while & just purchased limewire pro from limewire.com, installed the software. How does the it work? I can just search & download, for free, or is there any hidden charge for any download? Thank you. |

You have to download at least 5 - 10% of the file before you can preview it. For music files LW will use the built-in player (if enabled) and for video files your default media player.....

The LW player's not so good, you'll probably find it easier to disable it & make something else your default player. If previews don't work in other players, might be a bad file. Make sure to scan all downloaded files with your AV before opening! You can't play a song before download...preview it during download. |

I went to that website I just went to the website to see what its about. I could find no specific mention to limewire. It advertises downloads of song, video, etc. What its doing is giving you a service for a charge that is actually free. Yes it is a scammer, Is it illegal, whos to say. You can get your newspaper out of your yard for free. Or you can pay me and i will get it for you> . Yes it sucks that there are people like this out there. I feel for who ever got ripped. I also tried to find a way to contact these people. They have got there bases covered, like most scammers, in that it is almost impossible to contact them by phone or email. Just to get a email address, you have to sign up. Which means give them money. The way they would respond is that, for your money, they will get you the p2p programs. If you have problems with these p2p programs, they will give there technical support(the service you actually paid for) to you. Anyway i hope you and anybody else can get there money back> Good luck! |

looong site list, explanation I've been doing some research on these people and there seems to be one parent company responsible for everything: MarketEngines.com Here is a list of their sites:
They are constantly coming up with more, so I'll post periodically. |

Hope this helps. Hello to all. I'm new here at the Gnutella Forums, but not new to the internet. I took a look at the site from the initial post, FilesharingCenter. Interesting things can be found in their TOS, such as ... "TERMS OF SERVICE 1. FileSharingCenter makes no claim to ownership or proprietary interest in any of the websites and/or software it recommends. We do not re-sell or license software downloaded from other sites. " If I'd been directed there from a search engine listing them as a site for Limewire, that paragraph alone would have been enough to keep my credit card in my pocket. If they state that they don't "re-sell" software......ummmm,well, just what did you think you were paying for? Folks, you can really help yourselves by reading the Terms of Service, on ANY site requiring membership, especially if one must PAY for the membership. Read carefully, and read the fine print on the signup page as well. I know this won't help the fellow whose card was already charged, but hopefully others can benefit from this. |
