Yes right its stealware. Why don

Nope. Doesn't matter who's hosting the forum. If it's the official LimeWire forum, it's normal that the LimeWire people have the say and won't let some zealots cramp their style.


Actually LimeWire users installing the LimeWire version containing TopMoxie have to agree to the TopMoxie license agreements, it even says "TopMoxie" at the top of those license agreements. So the users DO have an agreement with TopMoxie. -> Ergo read them license agreements...


Are you trying to argue legally or ethically??? Legally it is the user's duty to ensure he understands the license agreement. If you are arguing that LimeWire's action were ethically wrong, then I have to say, I don't agree and that's where the discussion ends. Except for the issue with TopMoxie replacing already existing affiliate cookies there was no harm done. This issue has been resolved as soon as it was known and it was not malicious intent but just carelessness on the side of TopMoxie's developers.


Which wasn't a virus either.

Btw., it was never proven that it was really malicious.


Common belief has nothing to do with truth. Even Einstein made the one or the other famous comment on the stupidity of "the people". Also, don't make the mistake to confuse your beliefs with the beliefs of the people. People don't care, - for proof see the success of companies like TopMoxie.

deepblue,

I realize that all men can not be trusted (without it being earned), it is in humanity's nature to lie, steal, cheat and cause all sorts of other, trouble. But you are making some very strong remarks about a man you do not know. Nor can you prove your statements about the president. Therefore I suggest you book the next available flight to France. I think that you might like their socialistic way of life better.

But please, as soon as you can prove any part of what you have accused the prez of; do share with the rest of us. Then we will take the steps that need to be taken, you know, like we did with Bill.

Remember to smile today. :-)

One does hate to get political on a technical forum, particularly in purported defense of someone of ... enthusiastic ... views. However, those who dislike GWB will find themselves at home not only in France but pretty much all of the world outside of the US right now. He's a rather despised man for his foreign policy decisions. The best that can be said of him is that he's united a large number of formerly disparate nations and communities in that they all have a common hate-figure now.

As for liar, thief and terrorist I agree only someone with access to a magical fact machine could tell, but one thing he's definately not is popular.
