How Safe Would It Be To Download Limewire, To My Brand New Laptop?

I just wouldn't want to get any kind of viruses, or worse, on my laptop. I do have a security account with Norton.

    You will not get viruses from limewire itself, but you must be careful of what you download from there because some of those do have viruses.

    I use Limewire (the free version, had Pro, was not worth it) on my fairly new laptop (about 4 months old) and never had a single problem with it.  But I have used limewire a lot and learned what to look for to avoid viruses.  Such things as an audio file of Anna Godda Da Vida, and is only 960K in size, or a 2Mbyte version of Vista... You KNOW those files will not contain what they claim.

    I will not let my kid use limewire, because such filesharing services are loaded with porn.  He wants something downloaded, I do it for him.

      I have never allowed my children to download limewire on my laptop because they had it on my pc and I have had many problems with getting viruses from it until I finally deleted it.  If I were you, I would not download it.
