Nothing in terms of 'restrictions' in Search setups ?

Most clients do provide some setup parameters for basic extension 'filtering' in searches...
File that no appear in search results, wee difficult to download, what ?
(I am not using LW, btw... But, that's another story.)

The above is just an assumption as to what the 'problem' may be as jfsackmann is not exactly 'specific', hmmm ?

Also, using ANY p2p network, what type of .exe file would anyone in their right mind wish to download and open (without thorough checking first !)
The only .exe files I would ever dream of downloading would be self-extracting compressed files... AND, I would still test them with everything I can think of BEFORE opening them !!!

((btw - Must tell you a funny and true story about 'Jack'...))
