Anyone shed some light on it?

Anything else just as good worth using?

Yes mate ... Latest one!

Nothing wrong with the posts really. Limewire is a free program ... we are not
providing any files or links to them, are we?

Well you dont queue forever for a vid of TeenKelly like you do on WinMX.
WinMX was the vogue a couple of years ago .. .especially when (like me) you loaded up your own NAP server lists for Europe. Used to be a French site to download the list. The default install doesnt have it. (Ever wondered what that other button did on the start screen?) A lot of the servers are down now .. .you know why!

Limewire is up to date, but needs a Sun Java install, cos the whole shell runs on it.
There are loads of fake files on Filesharing lists now .. so you should be careful

Paul I use Bit Torresnts now that Win MX has packed up - its best for albums but other than that an IT bloke at work has told me that hes started using something called 'Bearshare' apart from the stupid poof name its meant to be really good - at work today we downloaded a couple of albums no probs, pretty quick too. Its like Limewire & Winmx but better I reckon - if you want it give me a shout on msn

Waste your life on torrents boys .. and you do risk corruption in the files, such are the sources.
Torrents are in the firing line of the powers that be, anyways.

Binaries, boys ... Binaries.
