Download LimeWire 2.7.0 beta

The LimeWire 2.7.0 beta has seen the light of day. This program shares files across the well-known Gnutella network which, according to the creators of LimeWire, has the potential to become the beating heart of information distribution over the Internet. LimeWire claims to be the most advanced file-sharing program available for the Gnutella network today. The changelog contains the following points:

In addition to fixing several bugs, LimeWire 2.7 introduces several new features:

• Remote queuing: if an uploader is too busy to handle a download request, it will queue you. The uploader then serves downloads in a first-come, first-serve basis. This feature is compatible with the queuing schemes used by other vendors.
• Resume from library: you can resume incomplete files in the library with a single button press.
• Safer resumes: LimeWire keeps track of the hashes for all incomplete files. This reduces the chance of a corruption when resuming.[break]The following downloads are available:
