yes because the song is downloaded from the other computer, and when you do that it also downloads any virus that may attach itself to the file... my advice is if you are willing to pay for Limewire pro then you should just buy the songs off of iTunes.

Will LimeWire give you viruses when you download?

When you download limewire it doesn't give you a virus. Each song you download holds a virus. The longer you have the song, the bigger the virus gets. Later the virus will get so big that your computer won't work. The above answer is wrong. Downloading Limewire will not give you a virus, nor will the songs it has. As long as you have good protection on your computer, it will be fine.

Does LimeWire always give you viruses?

Limewire doesn't always give your computer viruses. You would get a virus from Limewire if you downloaded a file with a virus in it. But if you use Limewire, you need to be really careful. A lot of Limewire's files contain viruses. Not every single one of them, but a lot of them contain a virus.


Can you get viruses from Linewire on a PC?

Yeah, LimeWire is dangerous and can give you viruses IF the file you download has a virus in it because the one that sumited the file to Limewire would have a virus in his PC and might not know it, or he/she just wants to give it to other people. And from what I heard, NO virus protection can stop the virus from coming into the computer because you downloaded the file which was the virus. I used Limewire for a long time last year and I never caught a virus, I was aware of the dangers, but I had no other choice but now I have a GOOD source in music and videos. So it's best to not use Limewire. If you want to know just leave me a message on my message board-my name is BiggMikeHarris.
