Lightning fast searches and downloads

Pros: LimeWire has TONs of search results, TONS of hosts, and lightning fast downloads. I don't know about the speed for dialup users, but with broadband you can download 50 popular songs in about 10 minutes or less. Some songs take less than 10 seconds! You can also chose which host has the fastest connection to download from. T3 is the fastest, followed by T1, Cable/ DSL, and Modem.

Cons: Software sharers beware! There are many viruses showing up in the software files. Stay away from these five....they are all viruses. Files with 851.1, 765.5, 424.3, 69.4, and 0.0 I haven't noticed this in the music files at all, but the software files are loaded with these file sizes.

Makes doing your own taxes easy

Pros: Even if you have never done your own tax return in your lifetime you can do it your self with Turbo Tax. I used it last year for the first time, instead of H&R; Block, and Turbo Tax gave me a much larger refund. It guided me through the return, step by step, and I didn't even need a pencil or paper! I don't want to sound like a comercial for Turbo Tax, but I just can't recommend it highly enough. Plus you file electronicly and get your refund at least 5 times faster than mailing it. Turbo Tax gets 5 stars and two thumbs way up!

Over priced clone of Super Utilities

Cons: After I downloaded XP Tools Pro, I noticed it was almost an exact replica of Super Utilities. I never got to try out this product though, because half way through the scan my Panda virus protection popped up and said "Virus Neutralized" WinFixer detected! That was the end of XP Tools. I don't really know what kind of virus Win Fixer is, but I know Win Fixer can generate popups on unprotected pcs. So I guess I will not recommend XP Tools to anyone who wants to pay $50 for a virus. There are plenty of free viruses out there if anyone wants one, lol.
