FrostWire is a free software alternative for sharing file over the Internet, allowing to download large files.

FrostWire is a P2P client application for sharing files over the Gnutella network. With a simple and nice interface, user can easily access data on the Internet and share his video, audio, images, etc. It also offers the possibility to download documents by inserting the IP address in the corresponding field.
