{{Main|FrostWire}}

FrostWire was started in September 2004 by members of the LimeWire community, after LimeWire's distributor considered adding "blocking" code, in response to [[Recording Industry Association of America|RIAA]] pressure and the threat of legal action, in light of the [[U.S. Supreme Court]]'s decision in ''[[MGM Studios, Inc. v. Grokster, Ltd.]]''. When eventually activated, the code could block its users from sharing licensed files. This code was changed when lawsuits had been filed against LimeWire for P2P downloading. It had blocked all their users and redirected them to FrostWire.{{Citation needed|date=May 2011}} FrostWire has since completely moved to the [[BitTorrent (protocol)|BitTorrent protocol]] from [[Gnutella]] (LimeWire's file sharing network).
