Limewire=New Kazaa? . Yet, Limewire> Kazaa? anyway continue on with your discussion of the software =). If you google for something you looking for it's only slow if you have a slow connection hence 56k or less (God forbid in this day and age). It's only good if that other person who has the files are online, its the same with AIM you can really only talk to the person if they are online in the first place. Same with Lime, you can really only get the files unless that person is on if not its basically on standby. Also,...Directdownloads don't usually close or quit...unless your pc restarts or your internet connection drops for a reason...Like I stated before friends kept using it, Bugged the shit out of me to have all that stuff, So I deleted it. My friends are idiots and every time they come over they ask if I have limewire, so tempted to bug one and send it to them over megaupload or something...
