Don’t get scammed, FrostWire is Free

FrostWire only accepts voluntary donations via Paypal at http://www.frostwire.com/donate, we do not charge people for any subscription fees of any kind, or for support, don’t let anybody scam you.

PLEASE DO NOT EVER PAY A DIME FOR FrostWire. Below we show you some screenshots of sites that scam people into paying monthly, yearly, or lifetime “memberships” to nowhere. FROSTWIRE IS FREE

There isn’t any service to pay for, you’re basically sharing your files with other people, that’s all, there is no service behind organizing the content in anyway, you just search other people’s computers, therefore, you don’t need to pay anybody for memberships.

DO NOT FALL FOR SITES LIKE THIS, YOU CAN USE FROSTWIRE FOR FREE ALL YOU WANT

These sites even put video demos, with a model showing you how to search, download and burn.

They even go and distribute OUR own FrostWire and put links to our servers and then charge people monthly fees.

Please do not download FrostWire from other websites, only download FrostWire from the official site www.frostwire.com

There’s no such thing as subscriptions or monthly fees, or one lifetime fee, etc. Since we don’t provide a download service, FrostWire is just a client of the Gnutella Network which is a FREE network.

FrostWire.com doesn’t sell FrostWire, however it accepts voluntary donations from its users.

If you are a victim already, look for an invoice, you will see it doesn’t come from FrostWire.com. First try to contact the company that charged you (not frostwire.com) and ask THEM (not us) for a refund, if you don’t succeed, then talk to your credit card company to open an investigation

DOWNLOAD ONLY FROM FROSTWIRE.COM

What to do to get my money back?

• Talk to the company that charged you, ask them for a full refund. The ONLY official distributors of FrostWire are www.frostwire.com and www.download.com
• If a company other than FrostWire LLC charged you and they refuse to give you a refund, go to your credit card company or bank and demand an investigation for credit card fraud is started so you can get your refund

Hopefully if we get enough investigations against these fraudulent companies they won’t be accepted to charge credit cards again.

So far we know that companies doing this are the following, and we are NOT ASSOCIATED WITH ANY OF THEM in any way:

• http://freefrostwiredownload.com <- FRAUD of the worst kind!!!
• MP3 Music HQ.Com
• Number One Music Inc with their site Free-FrostWire.com
• click-new-download.com (which shows a cheap copy of the LimeWire.com website to appear legitimate)

DO NOT FALL FOR THESE FRAUD SITES PLEASE. IF ITS TOO LATE ASK FOR A REFUND OR GO TO YOUR BANK OR CREDIT CARD COMPANY.

FrostWire is reviewed by CNET

On November 20th 2007, FrostWire gets a very positive review by CNET’s download.com, and makes it to the home page of download.com as the Killer Download of the Day

Click here to read

Their review makes us very happy, at the same time, it pushes us to include new killer features that LimeWire may not be able to have in the near future, however if you follow LimeWire’s code base, it seems they’re working hard to release a web based Music Store that will be included on an embedded browser inside their client, probably in the fashion of the online iTunes store, but probably powered by P2P (we hope, if they stick to their p2p philosophy and hopefully without DRM so that files can be shared or bought, at least this worked beautifully for Radiohead).

It’d probably be a smart move by the LimeWire store to include the possibility to buy their music from outside their site (with commissions on sales of course), that way, other music sites could trigger purchases based on search, as well as other p2p clients such as FrostWire.

FrostWire is #14 on download.com!!!!

FrostWire is #15 on Download.com!!!

For the 3rd week in a row we’re on the Top 20 of download.com and going up.
Last week on position #19, now we went up to #15!!!

Thanks so much for downloading, we’re working hard on the next version, coming out very soon.

FrostWire hits the CNET Top 20

This feels like graduating or something similar. I can’t believe our grassroot efforts after about a year of work has gone so far, far enough to make it to the Top 20 most popular software on download.com

I guess we can only thank all the users and all the people that have helped spread the word, since this is 100% the work of word of mouth, bloggers and tech writers that mention us for one reason or the other.

Thanks, we can only feel like releasing more and more FrostWire versions for you in the near future to see if we can get on the top 10 now.
