Okay.. I'm wanting to put all the music I have on my ipod onto my new laptop... but I'm afraid of trashing it out. Most of my music (all mp3 files) are from limewire. Is it possible that some of the mp3 files could have viruses or spyware in them... or is that impossible? I just wanted to make sure they'd be 100% safe before putting them on my laptop.
Thanks! |

^ Eeeek. Yeah.
I'm definately NOT installing any type of music downloader program on my laptop. I'm just wondering if its safe to put music thats on my ipod (that was originally downloaded from limewire from my old computer... may contain viruses) onto the laptop. I'm just afraid that the viruses could be in the songs, on my ipod. |
