One of The Best   P2P file-sharing application is LimeWire .It is useful for all types of files.It is mostly useful for music, video, Images, games and documents. It includes easy User interface , file previews during download, locating files.

 

 LimeWire's   Enhanced security features makes the spam to get blocked, and automatic updates will keep you sharing faster than ever with the latest version.

 

Limewire is a free file sharing program, which allows individual users on the Internet to make music, video and other files available for direct access by other users. Limewire also allows a user to search for desired content on other users' computers and download those files.

 

Unlike the now-defunct Napster, no centralized server or website is used to store files. Limewire directly transfers files from the hard drive of one user (peer) to the hard drive of another user, hence the term "peer-to-peer" or P2P file sharing is used. Given that understanding, it's more accurate to say that a file is being "transferred" instead of "downloaded" in the context of P2P applications.

 

LimeWire allows you to share or access any file type such as MP3 (music), AVI/MPEG (video), JPG (photo), etc. Because it is written in the cross-platform Java programming language, it will run on Windows, Macintosh, Linux, and other operating systems.

 

Its always recommended to check the virus before download of any software. Especially , when you are downloading exe files , its better to check the source with latest anti virus applications. Once you confirmed that , there is no virus , then you can proceed.
