HOLY SH!T LIMEWIRE

[RandomGuy]

lol i rarely use limewire, I mainly use torrents or whatever but i find it kinda stupid to download an entire discography for one song

so yeah I fired up limewire... downloaded a song... so I hit preview while it was downloading to make sure it wasn't one of those screechers ... and BAAM i get a blue screen a split second after I click it.... i was like HOLY SH!T

I NEVER EVER use limewire, I never EVER get bluescreens , my computer then turns off and restarts and says windows has recovered from a serious error

lolol i guess no more limewire for me lirl

and this isn't one of those downloading is stealing threads, suck a nut

[jew_boy]

torrents..... any good

[Nemesis]

haha one time I downloaded what was supposed to be a Celica GT-4 vs. WRX video race and it turned out to be some 70's lesbian porno flick clip....

haha one time I downloaded what was supposed to be a Celica GT-4 vs. WRX video race and it turned out to be some 70's lesbian porno flick clip....same exact story, but I was downloading the movie 300 from limewire right after it came out .. lol the torrent version was like 700mb, and the limewire version was like 300mb.. .so i'm like ****t its a computer screen i can care less about quality I just wanted to see the this is sparta part...

lol next thing you know its a porn from like the 18th century


on a side note, got anything for sale?

[Jaimecbr900]

Dang, that's what I normally use for music downloads. What other choices are there that are relatively safe?

[JDMaccord]

nev. had a prob. wit limewire........if i preview it and somethings wrong i just delete and move on just like millions of others do>>>>>>>

[Dracc]

i used to download songs and it would be a guy that sounded like bill clinton talking about a free website or something

[ahmonrah]

i use limewire pro, havent had a problem. and it was free!!! woot!

[Specsteve]

I highly reccomend Soulseek.

The interface is a little weird at first, but I listen to some pretty out there, underground **** and can always find it on there. Not to mention the program has never ****ed my comp like all the spyware filled programs like limewire.

[Nittanys1]

i had never had a problem...till about two weeks ago....blue screen and now i cant even read the drive....lost everything on that computer....FU*K

[xTSTONEx]

I've given up on limewire... you never know what you are downloading despite what the file name is... I use bittorrent and the website thepiratebay.org and have never downloaded anything fake or a virus. It may take a bit longer to download something but IMO it's worth it.

[Lucky.]

lol, my limewire doesnt work at all....... Limewire FTMFL

[an0therh22]

i use limewire. never had any problems. just check the file size before you download it to make sure you're not downloading a song that's 220kb or something outrageous lol.

[kpc2593]

^^x2..........limewire is not as safe as it used to be.....

[Glides]

Hmm,. i've never had a problem either. I download some wacky porn and if it has a wacky name....it usually is wacky. AFter hearing this though, i'll check out Soulseek.

thats why you look at the file size. those kinds of ads are only like 1xxkb. if you see that, dont download it. simple as that.


i use limewire pro, havent had a problem. and it was free!!! woot! hell yeah same here. downloading the pro version from basic FTW!!

[Psycho]

That's why I stick to eight tracks.

[Brett]

Thats odd, I have Limewire Pro and I have never had any issues, And I have downloaded... ~looks around for :police: ~ MANY songs..lol

[Jaimecbr900]

I thought you had to pay for Limewire Pro? :thinking:

How's that work?



Question to everyone: How do Torrents work? I've heard it all over the place, but I don't know anything about it. How does it work? It seems that a lot of people say it's much safer than any other file sharing site/program. Is that true?

[ironchef]

You know you can download individual files from an album torrent right?

I don't know anything about torrent. That's why I asked how it works.

[Mik2006]

i think downloading full things is for torrents and lime wire for single songs. but when your useing limewire, dont just download the first thing that pops up. and make sure the size is about right of a song.

[Jecht]

Just select the files you DON'T want to download, right click, and select do not download or its equivalent (depends on your client).

BitTorrent ftw, and if I can't find something I'm looking for on tracker sites, I'll go wandering around IRC.

Well, with bittorrent, there are files with the extension .torrent that the program uses to find other people that have the entire file(s) or people that are downloading it. Tracker sites like isohunt and mininova (currently one of the best trackers imo) simply store the .torrent files and information about the files they are connected with. Then you search the tracker site for what you are looking for, find a .torrent file that fits the description you want, then download the .torrent file to whatever BitTorrent program (client) you use. The client will then download the file.

Also:
Seeders - people that have the entire file
Leechers - people that are also downloading the file, but do not have the entire thing.
