Any P2P is legal, only the files you share are illegal, no matter what you read if there even is a "EULA", (End user Lic., Agreement). Not only is P2P illegal, you run a 99.9% risk that the file you download or upload will be infected with trojans and all other kinds of viruses. That in itself is enough to make you not want to use P2P, because you may destroy your pc, if you are unable to remove these viruses.

Limewire and other file sharing software is legal. Using it to upload or download copyright protected media - music, videos, images, software - without the copyright holder's consent is illegal because it is theft.

Limewire is not illegal. But what you do with it may not be legal.

lime wire and other P2P programs are not illegal. it is what you share and download that is illegal. anything copyrighted is illegal.

Lets get this straight... THE PROGRAM IS NOT ILLEGAL.
BUT, if you USE it to DOWNLOAD MUSIC or VIDEOS for FREE, IT IS ILLEGAL.
It can be used for transfering of files between computers (between offices, etc.)
If you read the bits in bold you will understand..
Your welcome in advance,

It's not illegal to have it, but it's illegal to use it.

using it is illegal and it ruins your computer...like making it slower and shutting down unexpectedly.... you'll eventually have to get a new computer,
