If you want a free anti-virus I recommend in order of popularity, but please choose the right one for you (install only one). Only download it from the official site; if you download it from Limewire there's a good chance it's a virus itself.
1. AVG Free
a. A simple interface (easier to use than Avast! and Avira)
b. Can detect about 82.82% of viruses
Cons: low virus detection
2. Avast!
a. Real-time protection
b. It has an option to delete a virus once found
c. Can detect about 87.46% of viruses.
Cons: Too many icons and confusing user interface
3. Avira AntiVir
a. It can detect malware better than Avast and AVG
b. It's cute umbrella icon
c. Can detect about 94.26% of viruses
Cons: A very sluggish update
I advise against Norton anti-virus, it's bloated software that slows your computer down. The best anti-virus available is Kaspersky or NOD32 (recent tests at av-comparatives.org).

I have never had any problems with LimeWire just be sure to download the file with the most multiple finds if possible. The only free antivirus i know of is AVG.

If you are determined to use a peer-2-peer site like Limewire (if you can get it to work), Frostwire which is basically Limewire, BitTorrent or whatever…I recommend you get Avast 4.8 home edition.
Watch the Avast videos on my profile here; it has a special tool for p2p sites and a nice web shield. It's what I use myself.
The link for it's download is on my profile too. Be sure and register it at the site if you do get it.

free antivirus, get comodo Antivirus. Limewire is ok, provided you download the things you are lookin for. beware of fake results that are all in small caps and/or very small file (below 1mb) also if you want a copy of limewire PRO get it here, I hosted it myself, legally.
