I would think that ICQ would be as vulnerable as the rest...maybe more so as you are able to send .exe's or at least you could back when i still used it.

If you are referring to the ICQ client,  i.e.  installed software package,   I agree.

But I wasn't talking about that.

      I have downloaded quite a few songs on Limewire.

      Unfortunately, most of them (MP3), on opening in Windows Media Player, open up your browser also, and redirect you to freemp3player.com, or something like that. Straight away, the page loads, and asks you to download a file, called Free MP3 Player. This is one of the most common viruses on P2P software.

      Here is more information on viruses and Limewire: http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/127357

      I have Limewire installed on this computer but ever since I installed it when I got my laptop (about 1 and a half years ago), I haven't used it once.

      Interesting reads though...
