Reviewed by: CNET Staff
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 for Mac. The latest version 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 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.

Version: LimeWire X 4.18.8
"A great software package for your iTunes collection."
Pros: The Pro version worked over a pathetic connection.
Cons: The basic version wasn't sophisticated enough to work in a narrow bandwidth environment.
Summary: Even over a truly slow connection - way too many users and not enough bandwidth here in Kandahar, the Pro version was still able to tunnel its way through the maze and get downloads to my computer. BRAVO!

Version: LimeWire X 4.18.8
Pros: It works great, as long as you know what to watch out for. When downloading songs, make sure the song has a BitRate next to it, otherwise there's a 90% change it's a virus. If you're not paying attention, you deserve a virus infection on your PC.
Cons: Since the average person has no observational skills, it is easy for the average user to get a virus infection. They really need to have better way so discerning which files are bad and which files are good.
Summary: It seems like a majority of the people that gave the bad reviews are half-retarded monkeys. Since you can't figure things out I will summarize what to watch out for:

Version: LimeWire X 4.18.8
Pros: The new Limewire Alpha is out right now that makes it like a browser window with some very cool features & totally unLimewire where you also have more control over the features...Limewire is going Social...& off to a good start with Alpha...
Cons: I've had Lime off & on like everyone else...Its been a rollercoaster ride with dogging viruses with the Basic...Not getting enough quality in mp3's or videos & you never download anything else from LW..Its sure to have trouble on it...
Summary: The New Alpha is a new Experience I hope...I usually in the past have downloaded LW to get mp3's & then dumped it because of the memory it would eat up & at times I seemed to lose Mp3's for no apparent reason..The file would be there but it ... read more >>

Version: LimeWire X 4.18.8
Pros: Nothing at all
Cons: Won't play MP3s
Summary: I was able to download the application, installed it, connected to the network, found music I wanted, downloaded the MP3 files, but the FILES WON'T PLAY! With the Limewire player, with iTunes, it doesn't matter -- they just sit there doing nothing. ... read more >>
