Okay, It works. It's the same thing as getting it off Limewire. Don't worry. It has been done before by someone that I am not going to say who...Lol. But ya, its not dangerous, just don't be stupid about what you download. But you should be fine, so I would say yes, you should.

CA Anti-Spyware (formerly PestPatrol) flags LimeWire as spyware,
and also detects Kazaa as being installed on computers with LimeWire

I think limewire period is crap. Pro really isnt much different from the basic I think..

I'd just stick with torrent.

Other wise get pro and test it out and see if u like it.

a judge has ordered utorrent to hand over all the info on its ram, so if u got a torrent off of utorrent the authorities have evidence that u were stealing and could possible prosecute u

not only no but heck no. get limewire pro from limewire only.
Limewire even has a warning when you log onto limewire about downloading it from other sites besides limewire.
