FrostWire 4.18.4

    Comments 1    2009 11 08   2533 views
altFrostWire is an peer-to-peer file sharing program for the Gnutella and BitTorrent protocols. FrostWire is written in Java, and is a fork of LimeWire, another popular Gnutella client. The project was started in September 2005 by members of the LimeWire open-source community, after LimeWire's distributor considered placing "blocking" code, which it was developing in response to RIAA pressure and the threat of legal action, in light of the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in MGM Studios, Inc. v. Grokster, Ltd. When eventually activated, the code could block its users from sharing licensed files. FrostWire was first released in October 2005. As with Limewire, FrostWire is written in Java, and so is capable of supporting multiple platforms. LimeWire is available in both free and paid versions, while FrostWire is released only as a free version. The FrostWire program includes all of the free LimeWire version's functionality, plus a few features of LimeWire Pro's fee based upgrade.
FrostWire also provides a chatroom which is absent in LimeWire.FrostWire's interface is nearly identical to that of LimeWire's since it's based on the same code base, however, the color scheme is slightly different as is shown in the picture above. As in LimeWire, the FrostWire skin may also be changed to a variety of different colors.

Features:
• 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

Changes in FrostWire 4.18.1:
- Updates on the “Connection Doctor” component, to address connectivity issues
- Updates on secondary (after-search) loading logic. Loads secondary overlay on the spot, more room for FrostClick artist promotions.
- Fixes a bug where the media player would loop non-stop without playing all the songs on a playlist once it found an mp3 it could not play
- Fixes a bug on for Mac OSX where FrostWire would only download torrents opened via Finder if it was already running. Torrents now launch FrostWire and start downloading at once.
- Updates video help link to point to YouTube video of how to install FrostWire on Mac. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hakWq8q8CHQ

Basically we’ll be addressing issues with Connectivity, Some Mp3 files not playing, and other usability issues. There’s some other work on the way to cut about 80% to 90% of the fake search results, but it could make it on FrostWire 4.18.2 if we can’t have it done in time for 4.18.1.

FrostWire 4.18.1 will also have access to a new network of Community Hosted UHC servers that will allow many more peers to get Turbo Charged right away.
