A free offspring from LimeWire to create a Gnutella client that does not filter any content
FrostWire is a free Gnutella client based on LimeWire distributed under
terms of the GPL. It was created in September 2005 after LimeWire LLC
received a cease and desist letter.
FrostWire is a useful file sharing utility that gives you the possibility to transfer files from and to your computer.
The
LimeWire open-source community then decided to create FrostWire, - a
free offspring using the publicly available sourcecode from LimeWire to
create a Gnutella client that does not filter any content.
Note: Some
antivirus and antispyware programs flag FrostWire as being
infected/malware, although the application is perfectly safe and does
not pose a threat to your system. This is called a 'false positive'. The
term false positive is used when antivirus software wrongly classifies
an innocuous ( inoffensive ) file as a virus. The incorrect detection
may be due to heuristics or to an incorrect virus signature in a
database. [Similar problems can occur with antitrojan or antispyware
software.]

· Completely free & open-source
· Firewall-to-firewall transfers
