Blaziken basically hit the nail on the head. The program itself is not illegal, and neither is what it was originally intended for. However, it is easily used for piracy, and most people use it for that purpose.

Limewire is so well known, that if the program itself was illegal, there would be someone making a move to shut it down.

But what you do with the program is another story.

Limewire is as illegal as Firefox or other web browsers are...
Just because you are able to download illegal things off of it as a result of what other users uploaded doesn't mean that the program itself is illegal.
