Hello!

You cannot see your own files on Gnutella because to do that you have to make an ingoing(incoming) connection and not outgoing which is what LW and all other gNET clients does.

As far as search engines are concerned there is none on Gnutella instead all servents including yourself function as one gigantic search engine together.You gets queried all the time when on Gnutella and you respond (With a Query Hit message)whenever you have a matching file in your Library(database).
