Setting Up Limewire

Video Transcript

"Hey everybody! My name is Matt and I'm going to be speaking to you on behalf of Expert Village. The first time you start up Limewire it's going to ask you a couple of questions. It's called the setup dialogue. You're just going to need to answer these questions. It's going to set up everything for you. First thing, you're going to click your language and click next. You're going to have to click a couple of times. It's going to ask your for your save folder. This is going to be the folder where all your files are saved that you download. Also, the folder where you will be sharing all of your files from. You can put that wherever you want. I'm just going to leave it as a default for right now. Click next, and then you're going to need to choose your connection speed. Most of you are probably on a cable/DSL, so you're going to want to leave that. If you're on a dial-up you can click modem, or if you're on a T1 or T3 or higher if you're a little bit faster. Go ahead and choose and then click next. It's going to say system start up. If you leave this start automatically checked, Limewire is going to start itself up every time your computer gets turned on. I'm going to go ahead and uncheck it because I don't want it to do that, and then click next. Also you can choose to enable content filtering, which filters some of the copyrighted files on Limewire. I'm going to leave that unchecked. Click next. That should finish setup, so go ahead and click the finish button. Limewire is going to go ahead and startup. It's going to ask you if you want to upgrade to pro every time you open up. I'm going to click later. We'll get into that a little bit later. Limewire should be installed and we should be ready to download and listen to some music, so let's go ahead and get into that."
