First off, I just want to say thank you for posting this question. Because it allows me to help not only you, but everyone else who reads this, as well.
Frostwire is the exact same thing as Limewire -- it's affiliated with it. See, they make it look different and make it seems as though they aren't affiliated with it, but they really are. and yes, you can still get viruses from both this and Limewire. And honestly, any downloading program, you can get viruses, worms, trogans, etc.
Oh, and no, it is not safer. I encourage you to take it off your computer. I cannot tell you how many people I know, who have recieved viruses from Limewire and Frostwire. ]
You can connect to 4 ultrapeers instead of 3(making it faster) and frostwire always shows "turbocharged". There is also no nag screen. You can still get viruses from it. No program that connects to the gnutella network makes you immune to viruses. The only thing that will protect you from viruses while using a gnutella client is common sense. ]
it's exactly the same just different version ]
