Will i get viruses if i download limewire?

3369>Good day. If u are downloading software, yes u have a very good chance of getting a Virus. If is just music alone, u are safe. I suggest Ares for music





www.aresgalaxy.org





Better alternative to limewire. I use limewire as a last resort. Laterz.
Reply:Many people think Limewire = Virus, but that is not so! Just be careful what you download. A solid anti-virus applciation like AVG should keep you safe Report It

Reply:I have limewire and i have not got any bugs or viruses yet. has been over a year that i have had it on my computer.
Reply:You can get virus's but not all the time, uhm.. depends what files you download... but mostly its safe as long as you have like a virus program on your computer.
Reply:more likely than not. have a good defense of a security suite in place or at least an anti-virus prog. the stuff obtained off limewire can be vicious also. do your scans. do your discipline. take your chances and happy computing.
Reply:Not if you have a Mac, but it's very likely if you're using Windows.
Reply:i did. it was terrible i had to reformat my computer.
Reply:limewire screws up your computer....I have to format my hardrive at some point soon because of that
Reply:be caution on download anything your not sure of
Reply:If u download it from a non reputated site then yes!!! Make sure that your online sequrity for the viruses is ON.
Reply:You just gotta use common sense. if you are using it to get music and videos probably not but when you start getting programs its a possibility. as long as you have good virus software i wouldn't worry about it
Reply:most likely i would think ...you take a risk at downloading anything


online
Reply:u might have problems if u down load any thing at there site


no u will have a problem if u down load any music or pics movies not do it
Reply:You won't get viruses or screw up your computer simply by downloading Limewire. Downloading music and videos is relatively risk free, but downloading some programs and whatnot is a little more dangerous. Always have a good AV program running (AVG/Avast!) and use some common sense. I've used Limewire for probably 5+ years and have never had a problem.
Reply:i dont have the program because i dont trust it, but that doesnt meen that it is bad
Reply:It does not matter what you downloaded but from where you downloaded it.





Many sites that offer programs and games for free download just for one reason -- they try to get the trojans (and viruses) over to your computer. The trojans (and/or viruses) will then be activated when you start running the program or the game and your computer will then infected.





Hence you need updated and effective Anti-Viruses programs to keep them away from infecting your PC.
Reply:i have it and it's been about a year and it's been okay, just make sure you only download music files and you'll be fine. I haven't gotten any viruses.
Reply:depends what you download...i would use www.torrentbox.com or torrentportal.com instead....they are a better place to download games and programs...for music only use limewire...you can down limewire pro from torrent sites...you will need to download bitlord to download torrent files
