I think this is the new "Kazaa" program. When I say that I mean its a FREE program that connects to a boatload of people, bringing tons of media downloads on a huge network, and its very easy for new users to pick up in a second. That was how Kazaa was. Free, large network, media downloads, easy to learn. The difference between LimeWire and Kazaa is that there is no Spyware, Adware or Viruses, something that Kazaa was full of. Its great because tons of people will download this program with the same intentions of Kazaa but those spyware problems will be nonexistent. Good work Limewire.
