Tisk, tisk. Limewire is the second-most illegal downloading site on the web, next to Kazaa. It basically takes every program, every file, every single little thing stored on your hard drive and shares them throughout the world! iTunes is legal because it's $1.00 per song, not free, and it's not a sharing program. Limewire, though, just takes everything without a cost. For example, you could buy K.O.T.O.R. II for $30, and then download Limewire, then people around the world are getting K.O.T.O.R. at no price to them! Delete it ASAP, because if you're 18 or older, you could be in serious trouble.

I wouldn't worry. Not that I'm not trying to encourage downloading or anything, but 90 % of online users do it, and how many get in trouble for it? I think you can only get in trouble if you try and sell the music or something and profit off it. I could be wrong, but I really doubt anything will happen. Don't worry for now.

i think thats funny that it said it was stolen hah thats awsome. and you have a smart computer.

but i dont think theyed kill you for downloading a music video? i just did today sept not through limewire i just right click on the link and clicked save target. but yea just wait and see what happens..now of corse unless it was a music video that hasnt been released yet and it was just leaked AND your NOT supposed to watch it yet. then i hope they find you and give you a lecture and yell at you for watching it before it came out on tv. but if its already out then thats ok :].

good luck with that.

You should be imprisioned for your ignorance alone.

If you steal stuff off the internet be willing to pay the consequences.
