Don't use the ones from Bitzi ... they are intended for a different network. Besides most are very old & probably no longer available. You'd notice choosing them LW will give a ? because it doesn't seem to understand them.
Use Bitzi to find reports about files. That's the main purpose of Bitzi; for people to report & find reports about particular files.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Magnet links are a good way to send files to friends. So you can create them for your own files & send them to friends. It's probably easier than direct connect.
Edit: I've edited that link about Bitzi. I didn't realise I had said you could download those links. I did
originally write that a long time ago.
Those magnet links do not work with LimeWire. Sorry about that. But Bitzi is excellent for finding reports all the same.
But stay tuned for newer LW releases because LW is going to experiment with BitTorrent integration. And that means links of another kind.
