I did a search for the movie %?&&and got a bunch people with the same file name and size but LimeWire doesnt group them up. I cant download the file when its like this even if I high-light the same name and file size. Other movies like Welcome to Mooseport is the same way. Any tricks to make it work?

Talking

Make It Work?? No.
How can YOU know what to download?? Verify the file on Bitzi Lookup, which you will find on a right click of the mouse when you highlight a file.
How do you know which file to Check??
1. Look for a file with a four star rating.
2. Look for a file with a higher number of users with that particular file.
3. If the file is not registered on Bitzi Lookup, try another.

Yes, it may seem to be a hit or miss deal but so is baseball. Not all files are viable and that has to be understood right up front. This is a user share file program with possible interruption from the RIAA and unscrupulous advertisers, ie....Ipod.

When you did a search for %&?%? did you have any of the same files grouped? Usually you would have a number on the left side showing the number of people having the same file.

Oh, well duh, I was brain dead this morning. &?%& is not a viable name for the Alien series. Alien, Aliens, Alien Resurrection, and AVP I believe are the correct names.

Don't mean to nit-pick, but the true titles are: Alien, Aliens, Alien^3, and Alien Resurrection (which is the fourth). Alien Vs Predator is almost exempt from the series, I don't know where it lies exactly.

I knew someone would say its &*?%& not *&?*, he he. It doesnt matter either way you search for it. Try the search guys and you'll see what I mean.
