![]() You shouldn't get spyware from Limewire! You might be getting it from a file you downloaded through Limewire(Maybe)? Or you have a trojen/cookie that attached itself to LimeWire. Also it is not a good idea if a person downloads Limewire from an untrusted source, because this source can add any program along with Limewire and then both would be installed. I suggest trying Lavasoft Ad-Aware SE Personal from: http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/ Iv'e been using AD-Aware for years now and it works perfect. It has very good reviews. Also everybody that I know uses it and they just love it! The Personal adition is also freeware so it won't cost you anything. Cheers ![]() |

![]() Might I also suggest you get Spybot - Search & Destroy http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html (FREE) And to add to the tool list you might also consider: Peerguardian: http://peerguardian.methlabs.org/pg2.html (FREE) which will detect any organisations trying to access your port 6346 & block them. Adware, Spybot & Peerguardian I'd recommend as safe utilities to use with LW. Many others don't work properly or have spyware themselves lol ![]() ![]() (Oh by the way, some other p2p share programs do have either spyware or adware. LW does not!)
