Default Limewire problem

I have a problem when i try to download anything on Limewire, it never used to happen before, but it started on 4.9.
When i try to download something a message comes up saying:
"Limewire is unable to find a licence for this file. Download anyway?
Please note: Limewire cannot monitor or control the content of the Gnutella network. Please respect your copyright laws."

I am weary about the copyright part so i havent clicked yes or no yet and i don't know what to do or how to fix the problem.

Any help would be appreciated.

I read that but I don't fully understand it.
If i tick yes, it's saying that i could get in trouble?
But if i click no I can't really download anything?

So I'm kind of confused...

Two more questions and I'm done
1. What will happen if I download the "wrong file"?
2. If i tick yes, how will i be able to tell which files are OK to download?

Its hard to say, it depends what you are after but if you ticked no before and you were not getting any results it must mean the file requires a license. Look I think you will be ok, I have read on this forum, stay under a 1000 files, were only small fish that way. what can I say just watch what you are doing.

Good luck...

You silly person.... There is no way for limewire to find you just download anything you want. Limewire can't really stop you.

It is not LimeWire who will be looking for you it is the IRRA and yes if they want to they can trace you through your IP address. You silly boy

Really come on you really think that the IRRA are going to worry about me downloading software they would be more worried about the amount of child porn in limewire
