The "LICENSE (sic)" file inside the downloadable tarball indicates that 
Hamachi is not free software. To take a snippet as an example:

"This License allows the End-User to install and use the Client.  Except as 
expressly permitted in this License, the End-User may not decompile, reverse 
engineer, disassemble, modify, rent, lease, loan, sublicense, distribute or 
create derivative works based upon the Client in whole or part or transmit 
the Client over a network."

Definitely not free :(
