Thank you for your replies, Lord of the Rings and File_Girl71!

I normally use Firefox 3.6.17 + NoScript. I allowed all scripts but that didn't help. I was in an infinite loop. Clicking the blue "Download Now" button lead to the same download page and no download link appeared.

I tried another browser (Windows Explorer 9) as File_Girl71 suggested and it worked! Installing now...

Thanks again! :xirokrotima:

Files removed from 4shared?

Hello.. just wondering if the files have been removed permanently? or temporarily? i get this "The file link that you requested is not valid." when i try any of the links. :( I've liked FW for awhile now.. suxs what they did to it. Sorry if i missed something that points to a different place.

Waiting to sort this issue out, sorry for any inconvenience. :)

In the meantime, I can provide some other links to a few of File_Girl's clean FW versions:

FrostWire 4.20.9

FrostWire 4.21.3 portable . . (Can use on any external device including flash drive, etc.)

FrostWire 4.21.7 portable . . (Can use on any external device including flash drive, etc.)

FrostWire-Skins installer . . . (instructions how to install the skins)

Or all found here.

How to use FileCloud (previously called iFileIt)? Simply click on the Request Download Ticket button, then on following page click on the Download button in identical location. Ignore all the advertisements on the page (need to have your adblocker turned off.) Sample image (sorry, used LPE as an example): Sample image (click link to see GiF animation) Or a more recent sample image: Attachment 5877

I must say, I found File_Girl's 4.20.9 connects far more easily & almost instantly to turbo compared to the original official 4.21 which seemed to struggle for connection before slowly reaching full connection.

(obviously not in same locations as LW 4 or 5. LW had a special preferences location for update preferences.)

Funny how that question was never answered. lol :D FW devs took away users option to disable update notices.

Just as well FrostWire uses the GNU General Public License. Thus may be adjusted in any way without conflict of any patents or copyrights, on condition it is not intended for commercial sale. Open source projects are such wonderful things for the general community. :D

wow I agree to no auto-update. Such a dangerous tool. We saw what happened with LimeWire & its auto-updating tool after LW 5.5.10.

And who needs or wants advertising or toolbars especially without their permission installed on their system. Some people or companies sell themselves out. Does anybody care about the client users hey ! ? :D

Getting marketing phone calls from early morning to evening & even on weekends. hmm why does it remind me of the 'unclean' FrostWire they offer at their site. Glad to see a clean version. ;)

Just to set the record straight with "auto-update", even if this is 16 years later.

We never added an "auto-update" feature, specially after we saw how LimeWire got shutdown.

We were hit with an FTC investigation and we negotiated REALLY HARD not to put an auto-update feature, we managed to settle for an "auto update download" and users decide to install that auto-downloaded installer, it's never executed automatically.

We did this basically because we were forced to, otherwise FrostWire would've gone down too.
