AVG Integrating Anti-Virus Service Into P2P Company LimeWire


P2P sharing network LimeWire has been notorious for serving viruses and Trojan horses within search results.  To alleviate this issue, LimeWire has signed a deal with AVG earlier this week to encourage people to sign up for a Pro account. Downloads made by LimeWire Pro users will be scanned by AVG going forward.  Currently LimeWire has about 50 million users worldwide. [CNET]
