I am trying to install limewire on this machine (mostly to see if Linux is really as virus tolerant as I've heard)


I could be mistaken, but my understanding of Linux/Virus situation is. Due to the nature of viruses, linux can't be infected, yet if there is a virus present on your box, you could possibly infect windoze boxes. But Linux can be infected with worms and rootkits.

Regarding the installation of Limewire....

Limewire is under the Net category of the MyDSL Repository.

Good luck.

ahh. that's why I couldn't find anything. I am still using windows-speak.

Thanks very much for the link. That was exactly what I was looking for.

It won't be long now. Every time I boot up I learn something new and gain more functionality from dsl.

If you liked the image that the title of this thread conjures up, just wait until you see the unauthorized biography of bill gates that I am writing.

It's titled "Mein Comp". :p  jk

Thanks so much for all the help. I am looking forward to the day when I can assist noobs too.
