Ah lime wire, get a song and three random viruses for free
How do you think we got familiar with the registry, local and user app data folders. Malware was early introduction into IT for many users.
I learned to fix so many problems in order to get free music, movies, tvshows and ~~games~~viruses.
I feel like the only person who never got viruses from Limewire. Just don't run the file called "slipknot_wait_and_bleed.mp3.exe", it's not rocket science.
