First of all. I have A PC
A lot of you seem to have limewire (Which I used to have but someone scared me out of using it so I stopped) but how do you prevent from downloading viruses? Do the songs really contain the viruses on them? And if you double click does that really mean you are allowing the virus there for it wont be spotted by your virus blocker? |

I used to use Limewire all the time but it gave my computer a nasty virus and I almost lost everything. I use Frostwire now (i've heard there's less chance of downloading a virus) and so far everything’s been fine.
But there's always the risk of your comp getting a virus with filesharing programs like Limewire and Frostwire.
I have a virus blocker that goes off when there’s a chance of a virus threatening my computer, so that helps. But the only way to avoid viruses all together is to not use these programs. _________________ Morgan
