LimeWire lies. It does send requery searches - but only once every 45 minutes - and then only for one file.

The five minute countdown was put in place when people complained that the searches were way to infrequent.

The reason for the low number of searches is to reduce network traffic. If searches were made frequent the extra traffic on the network would prevent anyone from transferring files.

Doing a manual search for a file and having it re-start a download is Working As Designed.
