DH and I just gave our daughter a laptop for college. Her first goal is to download Limewire so she can "get all the free music she wants!" A friend of hers uses Limewire and apparently hasn't had any problems. My best friend and her DH, however, swear their pc crashed because of Limewire (which their daughter installed without their knowledge). Apparently they began getting pop-ups constantly, including porn images. They were running Norton antivirus at the time. They finally took their pc to a repair shop, had the hard drive wiped clean and the programming re-installed. The pop-ups started all over again, and even the computer tech couldn't get rid of the problem. He's the one that blamed it on Limewire.
Anyone here use that site, have any problems, know of any other free download sites that might be more secure, etc.?
