As I recall from previous threads on the subject, these search results are caused by altered clients that return the same (porn) files for ANY search.


To counter these you can:

1. Block "!-!" as Bobomon suggested.

- In Limewire go to Tools=>Options=>Filters=>Keywords

- Type in the words to be filtered ("!-!", "Full downloader" or whatever) and click Add.

- Search results with these words/characters will no longer appear


2. Block spammer IPs.

- To see the IP in the search window, do a prolonged command-click in the title bar of the Limewire search window and click on Location in the popup menu that appears.

- Go to Tools=>Options=>Filters=>Hosts

- Type the IP address(es) that appears next to the spam result(s) and click Add.

- Results from this host will no longer appear in your searches.
