Advantages: Very useful, free songs etc

Disadvantages: Viruses

Limewire is a file sharing (P2P) network, where users post up files for others to download. Despite what some people have said, Limewire is completely legal, as is installing and using it. What isn't legal, however, is sharing copywrite protected files (such as music and films), and this seems to be what most seem to do.

Limewire is free to download and relatively easy to use, you simply search for whatever you want. There are lots and lots of items ready to download, but you've got to be careful about which one you pick. If you are careful, Limewire can be very useful, but, unfortunately, all too often one will get a virus, which Limewire is full of.

I recommend using Limewire only to download music, as you can't very a virus from a simple music file. Downloading .exe files etc is very risky, and I would not recommend it.

Overall, Limewire is a useful program but you've got to be careful, as it is very easy to get a virus. Beware

Summary: A great program that's worth a look, just be careful
