Is Limewire Slimewire?

I have been told by friends that a great source for free videos is Limewire- I went to the website and there is a free membership and a paid membership- My nephew's PC crashed recently and I noticed that he had Limewire software on his PC- Has anyone else signed up for Limewire and had PC problems with pop ups and spyware jamming up their PC? I hope I am wrong- I would hate to sign up for the free Limewire membership- start downloading music and videos- only to have my PC so clogged up with junk on it that the PC crashes and the internet service slows down to a snail's pace

i had limewire on my computer for about 3 years, and through that span i ended up re-installing probably every 4 or 5 months. on my most recent install, didn't install it and i haven't had any problems since. make what you want of that. if your dead set on getting limewire then go with pro cause chances are that they wouldn't package in spy ware if your paying for it. if you want a free sharing program you can try soulseek. it doesn't have as many big name artist as limewire, and i don't think it has movies either, but you can still get good music there. plus no spy ware

i had nothing but problems with limewire.so i got rid of it.

haven't you figured out yet that nothing is for "free".
i have had lime wire for about 2 years and my computer is fine. your computer crases because you are borrowing there files and if you are on limewire for a while they can start stealing your files which can cause viruses. so just make sure your not on for more than 30 minutes at a time and you should be fine.
