I downloaded limewire, but when I scaned my pc, it showed adware -when I deleted the adware, it also deleted limeware.Does your limewire have adware, or have you got limeware without adware? I like the site, but not sure if I should use it because of adware? Is it really dangerous for my pc ? Scan does not recommend that I delete it, as it does for many other things, but want to make sure.

out of ten or so file sharing programs, Ive found that limewire is my favorite. it does drop adware though. if you have a fast connection when limewire gets deleted. you can install the basic components in seconds. the adware just slows down your computer if you have alot. i clean my machine of adware once a week. but i think limewire is worth the trouble.

This is a problem for all spyware scanners, Limewire uses Java, and most spyware applications use Java, so the Limewire application is detected as adware, just try using the "this is not adware" button, or just ingore it.

Limeware is adware since it sends back some data. Read more here:http://www.spyany.com/program/article_adw_rm_LimeWire.html

yes and it slows your PC down. Hope you have good memory or going to constantly have to run your adware to make your PC run faster.
