Pros: It's
responds a lot quicker, where previous versions felt a little sluggish. Definitely one of
the better Gnutella clients out their. There does appear to
generally be more search results.
Cons: none. |

Pros: Ive
tried them all. I used to be a Naster user until they went down and I switched to Morpheus
which was a disaster and soon moved to Kazaa and K-lite. With very popular files you would
get decent speeds but a lot of times 2-10kbps was normal. When I switched to Limewire I
was very happy to see over 100kbps extremely normal. I have been using Limewire Pro for a
very long time and would definately recommend it over regular. This new version is very
nice with the new info bar at the bottom to see your download speeds from any screen. I
havent noticed any bugs or anythign so far even during my Beta testing of it. Files are
not scarce on Limewire and I like how it has the built in corrupt file warnings like
K-lite had also. It doesnt come with any bundled software and the people that say it
messes up their computer because it starts up with their computer are stupid because you
can disable it in options. Cons: It uses
50mb of ram for me which isnt that bad I guess but it is suppose to be better than older
version which I dont know about the usage. It also uses Java I believe. |

Pros:
LimeWire is great. Loads fast, hundreds of files to choose from and the browser is so easy
to use. I've tried most of the P2P and LimeWire by far beats them all. Cons: The only thing I can think of is I have to disable
my antivirus software before loading LimeWire because LimeWire will freeze on me. But once
LimeWire is up and running I enable my antivirus software and no more problems. |

Pros:
limewire has it all when it comes to p2p filesharing. limewire is much easier to use than
kazaa ever was. unlike most p2p programs, limewire does not come bundled with harmful
spyware. i've been able to find tons of stuff on limewire that i could not find on other
p2p networks. limewire's beta program is also headed in the right direction. i currently
am supporting 4.9 beta releases and i just recently bought a pro subscription. limewire
definitely deserves my $18.88 for making such a great, user friendly program. Cons: i hate having to mention things i don't like. but
there are a few... for instance, limewire is a big memory hog, but if you have the ram and
cpu to handle it, it shouldn't be a problem. i have a 2.8 ghz intel celeron processor with
512 mb of ram and i'm able to run limewire pro in addition to other p2p programs without
much of a problem. other thing that bugs me is the fact that canceling your download and
removing it from the incomplete files section does not stop the file from resuming it's
download on the program's next load. i've come to find that i needed to delete the .dat
files in limewire's incomplete folder. besides a few flaws, limewire is and excellent
overall program! |

Pros:
Excellent PSP(peer to peer) program ever.Slick design & easy to navigation.Lots of
sources for the files your searching for.No spyware/Adware.Choose between skins &
organize your saved/downloaded files.Worth having ^_^ Cons:
Some cons like all P2P Programs.Dont download .exe files because they may contain a
virus.I personally download all programs in zip or rar,so that way you can scan before you
unzip. |

Pros: the
best thing about limewire is that it searches more than any other p2p i've used before. no
matter what you key-in (in the search field)it will definitely deliver satisfying results.
besides that, the interface looks OK (though resource-consuming)and i give 4 stars for the
user-friendly attributes that limewire offers. |
