Re: So what's the answer?

The newest versions of LimeWire? Wierd...I think I would've heard more static on that software if it was still in the spyware market.

Please do put up that SS, I'd like to see.

Okay, well...it's listed under Adware, but do they have an explanation as to the reason why it's "spyware"?

I haven't heard of any phone-home activities, aside from the file sharing that normally happens on it.

Now that is bunk...I haven't recieved one pop-anything ad on my Limewire machine at all. Could this just be Yahoo using old definitions back in the days of Limewire's adware phase?
