Limewire/Frostwire?

Question

Ok, whenever I try to run LW/FW I get the "was enabled to initialize and start..." message. Yes, I get the fact this is caused by a Firewall. The windows Firewall isn't on and I don't have the Norton AntiVirus. So, I went under "my computer" and searched "Firewall." I got 10 firewalls on this thing! I don't know what to do now. Should I delete them all? I'm not even sure if I should do that since this is my dads computer...

But theres no firewall in my system tray. Does that mean I don't have an active Firewall? >.<

Answer 1

No don't delete them all, I also doubt you have '10' firewalls. Look at your System Tray, the lower right corner, usually an active firewall sits in your system tray; right clicking it will take you to configuration where you can allow/exclude programs from getting internet access.

Find your wall, exclude LW/FW, and viloa, you're good to go.

Goodluck

Answer 2

Don't get busted!

People DO get caught stealing "stuff" using P2P filesharing programs such as Limewire, Kazza etc and torrents, and face huge fines. Don't steal stuff if ya can't afford the time.

People as young as 12 years old.

"The music industry has turned its big legal guns on Internet music-swappers — including a 12-year-old New York City girl who thought downloading songs was fun."

"Brianna LaHara said she was frightened to learn she was among the hundreds of people sued yesterday by giant music companies in federal courts around the country."

"I got really scared. My stomach is all turning," Brianna said last night at the city Housing Authority apartment where she lives with her mom and her 9-year-old brother."
