Members need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link) Moderators There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 Out Of Pocket No I Did Not Get My money back and spent $15.00 AU Waiting in a "Que" on their so called a"1800 International Help number" before she answerwed and then hung up on me then left the phone of the Hook or switched me to a recording that said "Dial Before you Dig??" Grandpa They advertised LWat $29.00 I think it was? this turned out to be US $'s thats fine however" I Never Asked for Pro or the other 2 services I was billed for???? which all came to $84?? AU??? I managed to Download and install LW for Zip from this forum where sombody had placed a link to help mugs like me so I recieved $34.00 worth of LW for a Cost Of $95.00 as well as 5 hours of wasting my time and haqving to cancel our Visa card Etc!!! so it has nothing to do with simple things and thinking whilst gazing at ones Navel Grandpa the fact is that the LW site was a DUD and I was duped along with many other people I have been reading about.

| Hi Dasha, You've been royally scammed by someone, but it wasn't LimeWire. www.limewire.com is the only official site to download either version of LW. If you go to the site & click the 'get it now' button, you'll be sent to this page http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml & as you can see, LW basic's free. You pay nothing. The only version of LW that costs anything is Pro. That's $18.88 USD($23.37 AUD). There are no extra services to pay for. If you did choose to buy Pro, you'd be billed for that amount only...because there's nothing else to pay for  LimeWire doesn't have a 1800 number to call. There's no phone support at all. Pro users are entitled to 6 months of email support. Basic users can come here for support. There are that many scam sites around, heaps of people get ripped off. But they're being ripped off by the scammers, not by Limewire LLC. |

| Thanks Birdie That's what I have been saying Cobba! it was when I was going thru the Search results and clicked on the "Dud" Limewire from my search result? that I was sideblinded onto the rippoff site! A lesson hard learned! However as I have been insisting all along it was only because of someone from LW who wrote and tried to help me that I managed to salvage something out of this and it was not "LIMEWIRE the original" who "Trimmed" me but some other sidewinder I used LW a year ago and had no trouble at all" and once I was on this time no problem! So Iam very gratfull to whoever it was at LW who advised me in the first instance that I had been Ripped off" and made several attemts to indirectly assist me to get my money back and finally showed me the correct link to "Download it free" so again I thank that lady from LW" and them for their help and to all that read this it was not there fault it was mainly my own carelessness that allowed the Dud to steal my money, anyway as I have said to all! Especially if you are like me" only a computer fan and still learning" be carefull of what you do as there are some miserable S Of B 's out there who at times make all our lives miserable thank's to all who wrote.

If you have problems installing LW, then see Download ‘Other’ version & simply unzip & use! but uninstall LW first by going to Start menu > Programs > LW > Uninstall |
