HELP!! I am trying to figure out how porn got downloaded my computer.?? I use limewire to download mgp videos, such as soccer, music videos, etc. Also, I use limewire to download mp3 style music. I recently did a windows search to find a lost word document. In the search box i typed in "cookies". To my awful suprise I found a bunch of unopenable porn titiled mpg's along with other normal documents. Could these porn titled mpg's be downloaded to my computer without me actually downloading them? Say if I downloaded a Blink182 song or music video and it was titled blink182 but then after it was a completed download could it be named something with porn title and porn nature? Or is it possible that a downloaded music video could have a hidden porn titled attched with it? I am really confused how these got on my computer and really would like to know if it was something I downloaded without knowing. Hope what i am trying to ask makes sense.Thanks

A lot of times, files are disguised to look like something popular, but are actually porn or worse -- viruses and malware. The best thing to do is not to use file sharing services like that and to get your music through legal, legitimate means.

ya limewire is filled with virus and porn etc but im pretty sure the music is safe since i never had a problem with it. Just watch out what you download. Best thing is to buy the sofware or music you need :D

take my advice. When i downladed limewire i thought if i ran some anti virus scan here and there i wouldnt have any problems, right?pppppppppllllllllllllllleezzzzzzzzzzzzzz i was totally stupid to think that.when i had limewire i got free music and about 10000 viruses a day.my computer wouldnt shut down, it ran slow, and i used it for mostly running spyware doctor.but as soon as i un-installed it my computer ran at the speed of lightso do yourself a favor and ditch the limewire program. instead spent the $10-15 a monthg for another subscription
