If your internet connection is free, then you won't pay anything while you are using LimeWire. You can purchase the Pro version of LimeWire for a fee as if you were buying software in a store, but they do not charge for the basic version of their software nor for accessing information and files through their networking system. If your internet connection service (Freeserve Anytime) charges you for the amount of time you are on the internet then you will be charged BY THEM for the time you are connected with the LimeWire system, but LimeWire does not charge for you to be using their system, and if Freeserve Anytime does not charge you for the time you are on the internet then using the LimeWire system is totally free for you.
