These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 LimeWire Pirate Edition LimeWire Pirate Edition is free, open source software based on the final beta version of the popular LimeWire filesharing application. After Lime Wire LLC stopped distributing its software in October 2010, a horde of piratical monkeys climbed aboard the abandoned ship, mended its sails, polished its cannons and released it FREE to the community to help keep the Gnutella network alive. LimeWire Pirate Edition is pure P2P software; it does not depend on any servers operated by Lime Wire LLC or other companies. It does not include any adware or spyware, and it cannot be remotely monitored or shut down. Announcing the first release of LimeWire Pirate Edition:
On Dec 11, 2010, a project was registered at SourceForge under a new name WireShare claiming to be LPE. But not much happened other than renaming the program. Thanks to the LPE/WS team for doing this. However, using the WireShare source code, a community & forum member has released the equivalent of LPE 5.6.3 with the new name WireShare. . (Volunteers are welcome.)  WireShare 5.6.4 . (publicly released mid-March 2014) Some bugs that exist in LimeWire Pirate Edition have been fixed in WireShare, including some other improvements. Windows version: Mirrors: . MF Mirror, . Google Drive (2 clicks: down-arrow or click file-name), . . SourceForge. MacOSX version: . (Compatibility @ Intel with OSX 10.5 or higher with Java 6 or higher. @ Older machines: OSX 10.6 or higher with Java 6. Need to install Java first unless you upgraded from OSX 10.6 or earlier. WireShare 5.6.4 or later will now run with Java 7 or later. If you also have Java 6 installed then that version will be used. * If using MacOSX 10.8 or later, set the program to 'Prevent App Nap' otherwise App Nap will continually drop all active connections between every 15 to 120 minutes if not actively using the program. In Finder, use the Go menu on the toolbar & choose Applications (else keyboard shortcut is Shift-Command-A.) Find WireShare and control/right-click the program and choose Get Info. Check the option for 'Prevent App Nap'. Also disable the option to 'Open in 32-bit mode'. Desktop computers don't need App Nap in any case!!! MF Mirror, . . Google Drive (2 clicks: down-arrow or click file-name), . SourceForge. Linux version (Debian/Ubuntu): MF Mirror, . . Google Drive (2 clicks: down-arrow or click file-name), . SourceForge. Linux RPM distro version (OS/2, Solaris, Linux, Red Hat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva, etc.): MF Mirror, . . Google Drive, . SourceForge. LimeWire Pirate Edition 5.6.2 (abbreviated LPE - released 9 Nov. 2010)  (Startup Splash-Screen difference, File_Girl's version lower image portion)Windows version: (Windows 8 users will need to install Java and set the installer to Run as Administrator to use LW. Win 7+Vista users do the same.) File_Girl71's version (released 12 Nov. 2010): . LW Pirate Edition improved, download via SaberCat (File_Girl) (Recommended) / Mirror download sites: Download via GoogleDrive or via 4Shared. Original Metapirate's LPE: Download via SaberCat Download from Google Drive Download from 4Shared MD5 of installer: 7a96f2da87a7cfc6f10ab6a325ec0e48 * Known Windows issues: (The Windows versions have java fixes included within the install package.) (a) LimeWire 5/LPE running with Java 7? Important to see this . ou Francais ici, however LimeStart will by-pass this problem if you choose to install it (LW Setup now replaces the need for LimeStart!) . . (b) 64-Bit Java 7 update problem: re-install the 32-Bit Java last and all will be ok. Symptoms: (a) java error when opening LW, (b) LW changing it's download location and location of settings, and unable to connect. (Fixed in WireShare 5.6.3) Two other issues and workarounds: (1) LW freezing when changing download location (Java 7 only bug): Need to change it manually. (2) "Done but unable to scan for viruses" (this also prevents music transfers to iTunes.) This problem was fixed in the WireShare 5.6.4 version. Mac version: - OSX 10.5 or higher (MacOSX 10.10 Yosemite +10.9, 10.8, + 10.7 users will need to install Apple's Java 6 first before using the LimeWire installer. Latest Apple Java 6 2014 here, or Java 6 for 10.7-9 2013 to use LW. Alternate link Java 6 for OS X 2013-005 via Apple - update for OSX 10.7-10.9). MacOSX 10.8 or later Security permissions for downloading can be set in the System Preferences: Sample image Download via SaberCat Download from Google Drive Download from 4Shared * If using MacOSX 10.8 or later, set the program to 'Prevent App Nap' otherwise App Nap will continually drop all active connections between every 15 to 120 minutes if not actively using the program. In Finder, use the Go menu on the toolbar & choose Applications (else keyboard shortcut is Shift-Command-A.) Find LimeWire and control/right-click the program and choose Get Info. Check the option for 'Prevent App Nap'. Also disable the option to 'Open in 32-bit mode'. Desktop computers don't need App Nap in any case!!! If using an older mac with 10.5 or later, you may need to set LW to 'Open in 32-bit mode', instructions lower down in this post. MD5 of installer: d827a7ce4e64d4d4546f6b59f5b60ca1 Linux version (Debian/Ubuntu): Download via SaberCat Download from Google Drive Download from 4Shared (Need to be a member of 4Shared to download files.) linux_lwSettings_Connect_LimeStart.tar.gz (includes Linux LimeStart, Spam search filters, Connection file, optional Security blocklist.) Also a 7z compressed option at 1/3 the size. Optional Security packages for Linux LimeWire MD5 of installer: e7de0b7ee7fa5305407886d965b38661 Source code: LPE 5.6.2 Browse or download from github LimeWire 5.4.7 Source Code via AfterDawn To download from 4Shared, you need to be a member of their site. You can register there for free. Try to ignore the advertisements and sponsored download buttons. All Windows and MacOSX versions are now packaged with an optional security installer to help block out the very worst spam companies. The MacOSX package includes LimeStart by LOTR to prevent LW deleting the connection file if not used in 30 or more days. Instructions are included and order of installation for each. Linux users for manual installation of the Security packages, see Security packages for LimeWire (help block out the spam and evil hosts). Windows LPE install packages also include a LimeStart installer, as described here. This has two functions: (1) prevents LW deleting the connection file if not used in 30 or more days. (2) Overrides the LW launch problem with Java 7. (Note for Windows users: Lime Setup now replaces the need for LimeStart!) There is now a Linux LimeStart, search spam filter and Security package optional download, however this download is separate from the actual Linux LPE installer download, details here or just the LimeStart alone. MacOSX versions, if problems opening LW, select the program from Applications folder and 'Get Info' (command-i), check the 'Open in 32-bit mode' and this might fix your problem but only if you are booting OSX into 32-bit mode (sample image below.) OSX compatibility for LPE or any LW 5 version is minimum OSX 10.5 (intel) or for older macs 10.6 or later. LW 4 found here.  * See below in post #3 for File_Girl71's adapted Pirate version for Windows only. Read the changes to be aware of the improvements. . (Note: the in-built AVG no longer works in any version of LW, the definitions expired early 2011. The AVG may cause problem errors for some Windows users.) Do not disable file-sharing, do not 'freeload', if nobody were sharing files, you know of course there would be no files to download. If you are a part of the file-sharing community, then share your part and be a respected member of the file-sharing community. Do you never return what you borrow from your friends? Do you never return your partner's kisses and attention? File-sharing can even be a passion! . Last edited by Lord of the Rings; March 28th, 2014 at 08:36 PM. Reason: Added WireShare sub-section & links.  |

| Here is some work i did on the LimeWire Pirate Edition 5.6.2 my self, and few things i had to change on it... Code: ChangeLog: -This release of LW Pirate Edition is for Windows OS! -Have turbo charged connection, but it is no Pro relase! -Removed the ugly splash screen to LW Pirate Edition...It has a nice one now! -Removed AVG Antivirus (Useless pail of Crap!). -Changed some resource files because of the removal of AVG Antivirus. -Removed some not needed files like SOURCE, COPY and Flash Player Plugin. -Repacked the installer so it is a light weight one now! -Java is seperated from the installer, so it will not download a corrupt Java! Download 'Offline' Java 1.6 Installer For Windows Here: Java Downloads for All Operating Systems (Careful to choose the Offline installer about 16.0 MB in size, not the online installer.)
