It used to work fine, but recently I had to reinstall it for some reason, and it would give me the error that Java Runtime Environment 2 was needed, so I installed that, but when I try to install LimeWire, it still gives me that same error message. Anyone know how I could fix this, OR recommend me a different file sharing program (I already have winmx but it's nothing compared to LimeWire)
Thx

My old computer is now junk thanks to that program. They don't filter out the bad files half of the time.

You can't blame a program on what you're downloading...

Why not? If I knew I was downloading a virus do you really think I would have waited for it to finish? All I'm trying to say is I got a virus when I downloading using Shareaza, and I also got spyware, so I don't know how you can say it's spyware and adware free. It may say that when you download the program but you don't know until it infects your pc.

Exactly what he's saying. Pay more attention to what you're downloading.

The actual program is spyware and adware free, I know this for a fact since I ran Spybot S&D and Ad-aware after the installation. However, you may be visiting certain porn sites or downloading certain programs which seem to infect your computer with complete trash but I can't see how that could be Shareaza's fault.

Limewire is the only program I have ever had that did not put adware, spyware, or viruses on my pc. All others have. Limewire is the best choice for me, it don't matter about anyone else.

Sure we have. I personally have used 2 different versions of Morpheus, Kazaa, Shareaza, and a couple more that I can't even remember the names to. All of those sucked in my experience with them, and Limewire kicks ass.
