It might be. But be wary. Limewire costs money to download, but the content has not been purchased by limewire and therefore all copywrited materials are illegal to download.

Dude.... LIMEWIRE F-ing SUCKS. Dont mess with them or Kazaa or the entire Gnutella network. Its packed full of spyware and tracking programs. Im not paranoid, I just know this for a fact because I got busted for copyright infringement and piracy a few years ago from using them for P2P connections. Also, make sure you check all the hidden files those programs leave behind. When you download using them it places multiple copies of the files into other folders you dont know about. Thats how it got me. Just thought you shold know.

You can download virtually any software from limewire, illegally. What your actually doing is downloading a copy of the software purchased by someone else. It will probably work, will slow down your system, and cannot be registered with adobe.

Limewire is a free P2P program that will let you...but as a disclaimer, it is also illegal since that music you are downloading is liscensed.

Limewire the program is not illegal, "Can you do illegal things with it?" is another question.\n\nYou can do illegal things like downloading music, movies, and games with it.\n\nOnce again, the program is not illegal, but downloading copywriting music, games, software, and cinema is.

You don't have to, when the file is downloaded, the file is saved automatically on your computer.\nLook at the download directory from Limewire settings.

Technically it is illegal to download most music from Limewire, P2P programs, and Torrents. .How much you download is up to you.  The idiots that are dumb enough to get caught by the RIAA are the people who download thousands of songs and then share them all.\n\nIf you download, and only share a little, you have about the same chance of being caught as you would be to win the lottery.\n\nPersonally, I don't have a problem with downloading music, movies, etc, because CDs are too expensive, and the record companies take most of the profits.  It also doesn't bother me because I already have a CD collection and a movie collection.

Download Limewire then download IT

The stirctest answer is no, it is not legal because you are downloading music or files from other people's hard drive who have purchased it and are sharing it.  That's the problem while you CAN get in legal trouble by downloading stuff this way, chances are the person sharing the files is going to get in trouble, if they are ever caught.\n\nIf you want to stay safe, you can download files relatively safely without getting caught, it's the sharing that gets you in the most trouble.\n\nI would say it lies in a grey area and there is no definitive answer.  If you want my opinion, no it is not really legal but there is nothing in place to really stop it.

No Limewire is NOT safe! It will slow down your computer a lot and chances are you might download a virus when you download something from Limewire. I used Limewire for a short time and it made my computer really slow and gave it a few viruses. I don't recommend using Limewire at all!
