          LimeWire

          Peer-to-peer file sharing application

          Not to be confused with LiveWire or Lifewire.

          LimeWire was a freepeer-to-peer file sharing client for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Solaris.[1] Created by Mark Gorton[2][3][4] in 2000, it was most prominently a tool used for the download and distribution of pirated materials, particularly pirated music.[5] In 2007, LimeWire was estimated to be installed on over one-third of all computers globally.[6]

          Both a zero-cost version and a purchasable "enhanced" version called LimeWire Pro were available; however, LimeWire Pro could be acquired for free through the standard LimeWire software, where users distributed it without authorization.

          LimeWire uses the gnutella network as well as the BitTorrent protocol.[7]

          On October 26, 2010, U.S. federal court judge Kimba Wood issued an injunction ordering Lime Wire LLC to prevent "the searching, downloading, uploading, file trading and/or file distribution functionality, and/or all functionality" of its software in Arista R
