No matter what I do I always get "requery sent" unless the file is four stars and even then I get "requery sent". I have about a 20,000 to 1 success rate. Also, I have a DSL modem and when it does download a file it only downloads at 5kps. Whoever programmed this is a horrible person who wants to see me be tortured and go insane. Also, I would like to thank Kazaa and Morpheus for not making a Mac version. Great jobs guys! Now I'll always be doomed to use Limewire!

You can limit your searches to four star results so you are not trying to download from "questionable" connections.

As far as your download speed is concerned you will be limited by the upload capability of your host. If you are connected to a person with low bandwidth, a person only allowing a small portion of their bandwidth to Limewire, or a person that has several uploads in process the bottleneck will be that connection. Not Limewire or yours. Most of the time your download speed will be limited to the ability of your host to serve you. Not everyone has high speed connections and most are sharing their bandwidth with others.

That's not a good idea. Even one star results for example (although you usually can't download from them) might give you a hint where to find another host sharing the same file.

I agree with you. I leave my searches open to all returns but I also realize I will not make all my connections and I will see "requery sent" quite often.

If you think limewire is bad, try Drumbeat, its even worse...by miles.

After trying Drumbeat for a few days trust me you will love Limewire!

Are there any good p2p programs for mac?
