I put a question at the end of that title because I'm not sure if this is really kosher or not. Let your conscience be your guide. It's pretty obvious that, using p2p, you can get the Pro version of LimeWire (or nearly any other app) for free. But using the GPL to allow for the pro version to download for free anyway? Pretty obvious as well, since the pro version is open source, you could just download the source, compile it, and there ya go. Maybe the folks at LimeWire should have considered the terms of the GPL before charging for their app... Or maybe not. Seems like they have a right to earn a living making the application. Personally I don't like LimeWire, but most of my students use it. So yeah, Webby's World has the details on acquiring LimeWire Pro for free, along with a little jab at Java (which I'd agree with a commenter, is NOT generally buggy). Or you could be brave and go to this freaky site where they claim you can just download the thing for free. Free? Maybe. Guilt free? I'll let you decide.
