There are no automated searches every half-hour or so. Thats mainly because this is called bad behaivoir and we already had much troubles with other vendors for doing this a few years ago. Phex wants be a nice player without hurting the network.
Gotcha. If it works like you say, there's no need for automated searches. I was just going on the experience I've had with Limewire.

When you say "trigger a hidden search", is that the "search" option you get when right-clicking on a download?

Thanks...
