Default Spyware a big problem with Lime Wire

LimeWire has absolutely no spyware or adware. Zero. None. We do not bundle any other software with LimeWire.
I read this on Lime Wires home page before I downloaded the program yeterday evening. I have allways heard bad things about Lime Wire and it's unethical practices but thought that after the last settelment things had changed so I would give it a try. The first thing I downloaded using Lime Wire was full of spyware and adware. My spyware catcher found 20 different infections. I spent 3 hours running scans in safe mode and normal mode before I finally got all the infections off my computer or at least I hope I got them all off. Before this I was thinking of getting the pro version if the free version worked well but now I would not recommend the program to my worst enemy.
