no they won’t get deleted.
Use torrents. I use Vuze. I think it’s for Mac only though… but there are other torrent programs out there for pc… like BitTorent (sp?)

There are NO sites where you can legally download music or videos for free. All copyrighted material (which is all music and films) must be paid for. So if you want to stay legal you have to pay. And it is so cheap to buy music these days. So if you don’t want to get prosecuted, just pay for your downloads. P.S. Files downloaded from Limewire can often contain spyware or viruses.

Yes when you transferred them to you d drive you are ok. That was what I wanted to suggest to you. No need. you already did that.
Limewire normally does not slow down your computer unless of course you are downloading too many songs at the same time. Every download take away part of your internet speed.
So do not download more than 5 at the same time.
Now you can safely uninstall Limewire, I would suggest to do so and install Frostwire instead. Frostwire = Limewire Pro.
What ever you are going to do, either keep limewire or install frostwire, you should go to options and change there the download directory into the name you gave the directory on your d drive, where your songs are stored. Call it for example d:/My Limewire downloads
When you change that in options, all future downloads go automatically to that directory and therefor always safe
