LimeWire is a Great way to wreck your hard drive - Felinda

I'm interested in learning how it will wreck our hard drives. I've never had a problem with LimeWire yet, so maybe I don't know my hard drive is wrecked?

LimeWire is a Great way to wreck your hard drive - NOT - younkint

I am also interested in how this software will wreck a hard drive. It would seem we have some Limewire competitors posting.

I have used Limewire for many, many years and am yet to have a single problem with it on many different machines and operating systems. I pay for it, and will continue to do so.

I don't mean the hardware itself, just the fact that you are susceptible to ANY hacker's whims when you use software like this - sometimes the result is such a mess, that reformatting is the only option, and a LOT of people out there don't perform backups. 95% or more of ANY problematic Operating system has this piece of garbage installed. You may say "I've never had any problems with it" but just like Russian roulette, some people can play it longer than others, but ALL eventually will lose.
