If downloading music from LimeWire was illegal why is it on the web?
First, LimeWire is not illegal to download. It`s just p2p program.Second, all of the songs are not stored in a main host, its shared between the users. If you are downloading song, you are not downloading from the limewire server, you are doing it from users that accepted to share that song.For that, the LimeWire software is legal but it is illegal for the individuals to share copyrighted material such as music, videos and software. LimeWire should only be used for sharing the material that you have created yourself as stated in the LimeWire user agreement....The Program, like all peer-to-peer ("P2P") programs, is capable of being used to share materials that the copyright owner has not authorized be shared. It is unlawful to use the Program to infringe the intellectual property rights of others, or to share, distribute or download others' protected, proprietary and/or confidential information without authorization
Is downloading copyrighted music while you are a LimeWire pro user illegal?
NO. LimeWire Pro means you are paying for the media that you download. So that means it is not illegal. This is because you are technically BUYING the media that you want at home instead of going to the store. If you have NOT paid for LimeWire, however, then it IS illegal. You are stealing the media. Downloading media from LimeWire for free is the same thing as robbing a store's CD's.

Does LimeWire give others complete access to your computer?
This is a common misconception. LimeWire does not allow a user to control your computer or access anything you tell it not to. The problem is that many people keep personal documents in the same folder as the download directory for LimeWire. This means that whenever you are sharing music files on your computer, you may inadvertently share personal information. LimeWire is also a common venue for people to download viruses and other forms of malware. However, this is due to carelessness, and has nothing to do with the way LimeWire actually works.
What is a p2p user on LimeWire?
Peer 2 Peer, which is what Limewire is. You're a peer, the other people using it are too. They share files with you and vice-versa, hence the name. So pretty much a P2P user is someone using the program. Like you.
How do you know when you are downloading copyrighted material?
