LimeWire is a free, open source Gnutella peer-to-peer network client released under the GNU General Public License. It is written in Java, and hence runs on any computer with Java installed. The program allows users to share files using the Gnutella peer-to-peer protocol. LimeWire claims to be the fastest program for the Gnutella network. LimeWire LLC, the developer of LimeWire, distributes two binary (pre-compiled) versions of the program; a basic, free version, and an enhanced version sold for a small fee.
