thanks........

but why i got kazza and Grokster.....along with limewire.......is it too normal ?

if ur using limewire always check the file size ... never download any file with the size of 134 kb and 85.7 (not sure something in the 80s) they are viruses i royally screwed my machine and according 2 pestpatrol every limewire file is faulty so if ur using pestpatrol do not delete any file of limewire its of no use !!!

I used to use Limewire but after using Bearshare for a while am completely satisfied with the downloads it does continuously... but the thing that puts me off??? lots of unwanted porn

Doesn't BearShare crash a lot? I used to use BearShare but it used to crash and get uninstalled from my system so often that I had to uninstall it finally.

its 851.7KB i think. those files are all viruses.

lemme clear myself if I was not last time... I use bearshare pro and its up and running from past 15 days without crashing

I also had BearShare Pro. Do you have ZoneAlarm or any other firewall installed?

Lime-Wire is good. The pro version does not have any adware or spyware. Almost all freeware has those.

always remember p2p is always at u r risk

u need to use good antivirus and anti-spywares and trojan removers .

i dont prefer p2p at all u will get evry think on forums then y p2p ?

If you use any P2P software , you are at risk . Because whatever files your peer (other person) has be it pics, MP3, Videos etc., this harddisk may also contain
some worms, trojans, viruses. It may get transferred to your PC!!
Always use a good firewall like ZoneAlarm. Use Norton antivirus also.
