Publisher's description of LimeWire


LimeWire is the world's fastest P2P file-sharing application for all
types of computer files, including music, video, pictures, games, and
text documents. Other features include dynamic querying, file previews
during download, advanced techniques for locating rare files, and an
easy, clean user interface.




LimeWire's new spam blocker gets rid of junk results, and automatic
updates will keep you sharing faster than ever with the latest version.
You can search for Creative Commons and Weedshare licensed files, and
publish your own creative works with Creative Commons licensing.
LimeWire continues its guarantee of no adware or spyware. Includes a
built-in bittorent support. Version 4.18 may include unspecified
updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.




From its start as a post-Napster clone to its leading role as the
quintessential Gnutella client, LimeWire has been one of the
highest-profile P2P applications. The 4.0 series further ups the ante
with a combination of new features, an updated interface, and better
all-around performance.




On the surface, the refined and zippier Java interface houses some
snazzy new icons and a few new features, including a connection-quality
meter and a button matrix for zeroing in on specific file types. The
search interface now sports a progress bar, and file information--such
as artist and album--is more clearly displayed. The improved network
performance gave us considerably more search results than previous
versions and a more reliable downloading experience (for a P2P client,
that is). This latest version includes torrent support, and also feels
more nimble despite its inherently resource-heavy Java-based
foundation. We like the What's New feature, which lists files recently
added to the network. The check box to filter out adult content also is
a nice touch.




The new features and overall functionality make this by far the
most mature version of LimeWire to date. Despite the typical
performance flaws found in all file-sharing clients, this latest
version continues to offer solid performance and good looks across the
board.
