Version: LimeWire 4.18
Pros: Very fast P2P applicaton. LimeWire smokes all the competition for downloading music and videos. I have broadband and can download a dozen songs in less than 5 minutes. Full length movies,(700 MB) will take a couple hours. I don't recommend using LimeWire for ANY software downloads. The files all seem to contain viruses. Music and movies are safe as long as you pick the correct size from the hosts you choose. If you want to download software apps,( spy cleaners, registry cleaners, photo apps, etc), stick with e-mule or Shareaza.

Version: LimeWire 4.18
"I've compiled a 17.2 GB Music collection with Limewire Pro."
Pros: I've been using the pro version for a long time & have compiled an awsome music collection with it. It remails the only P2P program I use & trust, mostly.
Cons: Oh sure, messing with a P2P program has it's risks. I try my best to avoid them. Compressed downloads, music downloads with all lower case letters, program cracks etc., etc! These are not ones I download, period and with a good anti-virus & anti-spy installed I have yst to be infected using Limewire.

Version: LimeWire 4.18
Pros: the search options are really good. u can search by name, song, movie, genre, etc.
Cons: it's a unsafe program and u can get a virus or anything else from it. some movies are 1 name, but can be a differnet movie all together. no matter what to look for there is ALWAYS a bit torrent w/ some kind of sex options, that part really sucks!

"Great P2P (peer-to-peer) client!"
Pros: LimeWire is very easy to use and even includes a built-in web browser! It allows you to select if you want to download videos, files, audio files, and more!
