3. I was just waiting for someone to say something like that!
Yes, they can. You have to be VERY careful with them. I don't use them much anymore. I really just need to get rid of them completely.

8. My 22 y.o. used both, and the computer slowed to a crawl....

12. I have Limewire installed and have never had a problem
the key is to use the pro version, not the free. The pro has no spyware associated with it.
