That will identify known viruses and known malicious software, but will do little against anything else.

I can write an executable file called BigJugs.exe that will wipe critical files on your PC. AVG (and other virus scanners) will be as happy as Larry and say it is safe.

I wouldn't download an exe file - and especially one called BigJugs 😛

I used LimeWire for years, now I have switched to the LimeWire offshoot Frostwire.
Both have filters for file types.

Mininova and ThePiratebay are great for full albums and films.

Limewire and other p2p programs have millions of non-copyrighted music files too.

The use of LimeWire [and the other p2ps does not mean you are stealing music like a lot of people seem to think]
