Frostwire - Who Needs Limes

Frostwire

Anyone who uses Peer-2-Peer files sharing has heard about Limewire, the open-ource free Gnutella based application with the lime green icon. One of the things you will notice when you use Limewire is that since the base program is free, they are always trying to upsell you to Limewire PRO which supposedly gives you access to better feautres like, Optimized search results and Turbo-charged downloads.

Charging for software didn’t sit well with some Limewire developers, so like any good open source project this caused a fork from the Limewire code and gave birth to Frostwire. Frostwire is, in essence, a FREE version of Limewire PRO and is available for download at Frostwire.com. In addition to including the Limewire PRO features that matter, Frostwire also functions as a rudimentary bittorrent client. Some other feature that Frostwire touts are:

Firewall-to-firewall transfers
