    Quick Limewire Question
    If I remove Limewire from my computer will it remove everything I've ever downloaded?

        No, it won't Bob, If you've saved your file downloads to your hard drive or ipod which is where mine are. You can still use Itunes or any audio player to listen to your music. Right click a song and see where it shows, if its in Music > itunes, you'll be fine. I've already deleted Lime because as we all know, they got shut down. Frostwire is a pretty good file sharing site, although not as good as what Lime was.

          Thanks. I already deleted it so hopefully it didn't take any songs with it. All the songs I cared about were already in Itunes so I assume I'm good. I checked a few random songs I used Limewire for and they are still there. I downloaded Frostwire last week and was happy with it. I was able to find everything I was looking for.

            If you Uninstalled the Limewire app, then all it does is delete the app and it doesn't delete the folder where you kept all your music.
            Your safe man.

                Uninstall does not always work because the spyware and viruses are already there, you need security like AVG and Adaware to kill those.

                  Limewire didn't do that, you did.

                  But I agree, get rid of it!

                    Yes -
                    move your downloads to a storage device, then sterilize your computer.

                    Congrats on all your poker wins
