when you get limewire from viruses, is it just from downloading the limewire application? or is it from the songs that you download that happen to have viruses?
With limewire, what is it that gives you the viruses?free spyware remover
You are not getting viruses from limewire. It is the items you are downloading that are causing you trouble. And not all files you downline from limewire will contain viruses.
But to be safe, you should be using a LIVE antivirus program that stops and heals the infected file before it hurts your computer. I use this free one, which is incredibly reliable...

the reason that you get viruses is becuase of the files that you download. Usually it's program files. Music files are generally OK
limewire is crap! stop using it and learn what bittorrent is.
mm ... its not paying attention to what ur downloading ... yes, its the actual stuff u download and open that is the problem ...
the limewire application itself is not a virus, if it was then no one would use it. It is the stuff you download off of it. It can be anything. Programs are the most likely though because they actually install on your pc. Never download a program off of limewire. That is the stupidest thing you can do. Most songs will not contain a virus.
Limewire does not give you viruses.. At least not if you downloaded it from there website.. But, with limewire you can download viruses.. A lot of files that are available via Limewire are viruses disguised as other things.. The best think I can advise is to get a anti-virus program and to read the limewire forums on there website to give you an idea of what to watch out for.. I've learned that most of the time by looking at the size of the file you will be able to avoid a lot of the bad files on limewire.. Check out Limewires forums, there is a lot of good info there on just this subject..
Dont download Exe files... Songs wont carry virus's(though they mite have licenseces which can lead you to sites with em(RARELY))and the applications CLEAN... Dont download porgrams, if you are then download Zips or Rars... that way You can get rid of them clean and easy... But if you get and infected Exe...(And the odds of that is 4000/1 lol) you could instantly have your computer die on you, hence causing you to A. Break down and cry, B. Rip it to shreds, C. go insane, or (less likely) D. Cheer, it was sucking the life out of you anyway..lol
limewire is a p2p programme, which means that your computer is connected to other computers around the world so if anybody wants to, they can send viruses to your computer through the files you download.
