Okay, well...it's listed under Adware, but do they have an explanation as to the reason why it's "spyware"?

I haven't heard of any phone-home activities, aside from the file sharing that normally happens on it.

Now that is bunk...I haven't recieved one pop-anything ad on my Limewire machine at all. Could this just be Yahoo using old definitions back in the days of Limewire's adware phase?
