I can relate to the problem i saw mentioned here....when at google youget this site first as a hit when looking for lime wire...automatically one thinks it's the right site

i got the same problem here...no chance of refund i fear..BTW how did you contact that company?? they don't have a email adress....or did you gamble and write to info@musicmenbersarea.com??

also a ripped off p2p user.....

Hmm, and you believe Google? In case you didn't noticed it, the search results are so called sponsored links (advertisement) masked as search results. Google's advertisement system is known to be a bit shady...

andWell I'm a bit wiser a a result of this. But I must say I'm very pleased wirh this forum. It has taught me a lot.

I couldn't even find an email address. They advertise a phone no. but it's only available in US office hours, or thereabouts. Here in Australia I work shift work so waited till 3 a.m. our time and got through quite quickly. I didn't ask for the full amount to be refunded, only that part for extra bundled software I clearly hadn't ordered. On that basis they seemed willing to return part of my money. I'm willing to accept that and write off the balance as a learning cost.
I'll let you know if that partial refund comes through.

Hey guys,

Thanks for all your advice and pointers. I realize I was fooled by the "sponsored links". I got my money back from my credit card company (Once you explain your situation, most cc companys will refund disputed charges up to 90-days after they occur).

So let me ask this one thing...The PRO version at limewire.com: Does it work just fine without slowing down one's computer or stuff like that (spyware, etc)? I had so many issues when I downloaded the crap from that bogus site.

Thanks!

Both Versions of LimeWire are spyware free some people do have problems with LW slowing down there computer both versions. The staff at LimeWire is currently working on a new version which is a little less memory intinsive. I have found with Pro I get a little better search results than I do with basic in (leaf mode), in ultrapper they both seem to be the same. If I were you I would try the new basic 4.9.11 and see how it preformes for you. If you have any problems with it you can try some of the fixes in this forum. I have found A properley configured LimeWire is the best P2P software avaliable and I use them all. There are others who will disagree with me thoug, but it has been the best for me. If you like the basic then I would buy PRO but remember 4.9.11 is a beta and may have some problems I am currently running it no mager isues so far but a coupple of minor ones though but it preformes great. 5.0 should be comming out soon whitch will be a regular release with most of the bugs worked out. Make sure whatever you do you get from the official site. And make sure you have gotten rid of all the spyware from your previous copy. After you uninstall the previous copy you should deleat the LW folder on your hard drive before reinstalling. Hope this helps. Sorry for the rambling probbaly more Info than you were asking for.

I'm pleased to say I received a full refund from MP3DOWNLOADING.CO at http://www.musicmembersarea.com/index.asp. Better (obviously) than the partial refund I'd thought I was getting. Woo hoo. Thanks for the advice etc everyone.

Well done Powerstufff

Glad you got the full refund rather than that promised (fictitious) software (with no limits).
