FrostWire is a community driven project based on source code released by LimeWire LLC to create and maintain a Gnutella client according to the open standards of an international community.

We are busy building a website and creating a new design for the FrostWire Gnutella client. Since LimeWire(http://www.limewire.com/) is a registered trademark we cannot distribute the client under its old name.

FrostWire will not break with LimeWire's design philosophy. FrostWire is a tool that will never have a PRO version.

The FrostWire project will always remain strictly non-profit and free of any bundled software, including any ads or nags.

Here are some key features of "FrostWire":

· Completely free & open-source.
· Firewall-to-firewall transfers.
· Turbo-Charged Download Speeds.
· Absolutely NO Spyware or Adware.
· Connects to more sources.
· Creative Commons license support.
· Max. speed network connections.
· Junk Result Filters.
· Community Chat Rooms.
· iTunes Integration.
· BitTorrent Support.
· Proxy Support.

Requirements:

· 128 MB of RAM (256 MB Recommended).

· An active internet connection.

What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]

· Fixes a newly introduced bug in Windows which would make FrostWire(tm) take over the .bittorrent file association without asking the user.
· Reduces network load. The LimeWire team found out that "store forwarding" would not provide extra data availability, so it's been turned off from the DHT
· FrostWire.ico has been updated. Now when FrostWire(tm) is associated to .bittorrent files, .bittorrent files will use the FrostWire(tm) icon.
