Download of LimeStart 1.0 for Mac was on the developer's website when we last checked. We cannot confirm if there is a free download of this app available.
According to the results of the Google Safe Browsing check, the developer's site is safe. Despite this, we recommend checking the downloaded files with any free antivirus software. This free Mac application was originally developed by Gnutella Forums.
From the developer:
This program will change the connection file's date and then launch LimeWire. LimeStart should be used to open LW instead of opening LW directly. This program is only 140 KB in size, compared to LW at 75 MB so it's only a small script and closes by itself as LW opens (LimeStart closes within less than a second).
