FrostWire. FrostWire is a popular free and Open Source P2P client supporting both Gnutella and BitTorrent downloads. The application was first released in 2004 by members of the LimeWire Open Source community.FrostWire is similar to LimeWire in use and layout, and is fully compatible with iTunes.he two applications we discussed above both support BitTorrent downloads, but like LimeWire they were rarely used for this purpose. The main reason is most likely that many of its users donât really know where to find .torrent files. For those who want to switch over, here is a list of some decent torrent sites.
A few months after the Texas War for Independence, two brothers,  J.K. and A.C. Allen, founded Houston on August 30, 1836. They named  it after General Sam Houston.
In August 1836, they purchased 6,642 acres (27 kmÂ²) of land from T. F. L. Parrot, John Austin's widow, for $9,428. The Allen brothers named their town after Sam Houston. Houston started out as a hamlet. Gail and Thomas H. Borden surveyed and mapped the town in typical grid fashion, with wide streets running parallel and perpendicular to the area's system of bayous. The city was granted incorporation on June 5, 1837 and James S. Holman became the first mayor. That same year, Houston also became the county seat of Harrisburg County, which was renamed Harris County in 1839. At this time, the Texas Legislature designated Houston as the temporary capital of the new Republic of Texas.
