Answer to your question:The main thing is that you can download files that contain serious viruses. They can install on your computer when you open the file. Viruses are usually found in programs such as .zip and .exe type files. I suggest not downloading programs from Limewire since many contain viruses. If you want to download a program, scan the files with a virus scanning program.
