File-sharing service LimeWire, which last month was shut down by a federal judge, published a notice on its website on Wednesday warning that other applications are using its name.
"We have very recently become aware of unauthorized applications on the Internet purporting to use the LimeWire name," the notice says.
"We demand that all persons using the LimeWire software, name, or trademark in order to upload or download copyrighted works in any manner cease and desist from doing so. We further remind you that the unauthorized uploading and downloading of copyrighted works is illegal."
