Product Description:

LimeWire is a software tool that enables peer-to-peer file sharing on the Gnutella network. LimeWire enables the sharing, searching, and downloading of MP3 music files. LimeWire also lets users share and search for all types of computer files, including movies, pictures, games, and text documents. Other features include dynamic querying, push proxy support for connecting through firewalls, the ability to preview files while downloading, and advanced techniques for locating rare files.

What's new in this version:

  • Better validation on download sources ensures higher download success rates.
  • Greatly enhanced support for downloading content across firewalls.
  • More active download engine will now seek more sources when queued.
  • Stalled download sources are now dropped so better performing sources are used.
  • Search now locates more download sources for individual files.
  • iTunes integration on OSX.
  • By right-clicking (or control-click on Mac) on column headers, you can choose to display tooltips or row stripes, and to automatically sort tables.
  • For quick access to LimeWire, English only Windows users have the option to start LimeWire on system startup.
  • Improved upload queuing logic reduces the amount of time users must ‘wait in line’ for downloads.
  • LimeWire now uses Java 1.4.1 on Mac OSX if available.
  • Easier bug reporting: Just hit send if you encounter a bug!
  • Server-side support for 'Leaf Guidance' enables clients to display query results more quickly and reduce bandwidth usage.
