Lime Wire is peer-to-peer sharing (P2P). It allows users to share items within their Shared Documents folder (that's default, but you can change it) with other users.
You can share music, programs, videos .. just about anything. There is also a chat feature.
Lime Wire is free, but you can pay a one-time fee of $20 and get a turbo-charged connection. Great if you do a lot of downloading!
Lime Wire does have a feature that will search only for items with creative commons licenses. Try to avoid bootlegging music and programs, however.
Careful of viruses... on any search that you do, you will find dozens of responses with sizes of 800kb or 200 kb or 20 kb (give or take a couple). These are almost always destructive programs. Avoid 'em by clicking the 'size' button and rearranging all the responses by size...then avoid the smallest ones, particularly those that appear first. Lime Wire will help you identify virus-ridden downloads, to a certain extent. It can identify corrupt files.
Similar programs would include Bear Share and Kazaa (I wouldn't recommend Kazaa).

Lime wire is basically where media lovers "share" all types of music, videos, document and picture files in all types of formats-windows media, mp3, mp4, etc. The basic version is free, but you can upgrade for a fee to download or upload files faster.

Limewire is one of many peer to peer file sharing programs available on the internet. Others that I have used are Ares, Morpheus and Kazaa. Yes it is free, though you do recieve prompts to ugrade to the "pro" edition and pay a monthly fee if you want supposedly faster downloads. If you're going to use any of these services make sure you have high quality security on you computer because they are a big doorway for viruses, spyware etc. to get onto your computer from the files you chose to download.

p2p - peer to peer file-sharing software i.e. so you can share your files with other people and vice versa rather than getting files from a website (server).
It is free but you can buy a version which has more features and faster download speeds.

its a program that you can download ( http://www.limewire.com/english/content/home.shtml ) that allows you to share files with other users and you can also download things such as video files, music and etc. from other people. the download version is free, but you can also get the "better version" if you pay, but you dont have to.

Avoid it like the plague, it is notorious for loading your system with spyware.
