  Duration of ownership: 12 Months

  Strengths: Wide range of community members and music/vids. Kinda quick at times.

  Weaknesses: Limewire will not filter out porn crap not viruses/malware.

  Overall Evaluation: you have to judge youself what to download. If for example you see "batman Begins" hosted by 43 people but has a filr size of 473Kb, you should probably be suspicious. Limewire itself has no spy/adware that I found.

  Strengths: has wide songs for download but limited videos and movies.

  Weaknesses: has lot of viruses and spywares. so be careful while downloading especially if you find common sizes.

  Overall Evaluation: Cool. You can backup its folder then uninstall it from your system. Then from the backup folder you can run the application just like the application is installed.
