These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 files always corrupted, firewall set to 'always allow; I downloaded about 30 songs over the past week since I installed Limewire, and everything was fine. I havent done anything different except install a printer since the last time I downloaded and now everything is corrupted as soon as it hits 100%. I already searched and found a thread that advised to check the firewall settings but my windows firewall is disabled, and my norton firewall has limewire set as 'always allow' and it allows automatic downloads of active x and java and all of that.. I dont understand what happened! any suggestions would be appreciated. thank you!  |

 Have you read this T3 Spammers; mp3 Bit-Rates Versus File Sizes Is it that your files say they are corrupt or that when you play them back they have silence? Did you get a message coming up with a message saying corruption detected? Did you tick continue or not to continue & did you tick the always use this answer? If you ticked no then the file will probably have corrupt in its name. Do this test: Bug Report instructions & sample image Is the result True/False? If False then there's still a firewall issue. Did you use this Configuring Norton Internet Security for directions for configuring your NIS? Just double-check it. What modem / router brands & models do you have? |

| RE: files always corrupted, firewall set to 'always allow; At first when the pop up started coming up saying there was a corruption detected in the file do you want to continue downloading i would say yes, then when i tried to play the file in Windows Media Player 10 I got an error message saying that the player could not play the file because the codec was not supported, but it was an mp3 file.. and other mp3's play fine. so after a while i checked the box that said 'always use this answer' and said no. Then every file said 'file corrupted' after the download completed. I cannot think of anything I missed with the Norton, its pretty simple to configure. I have a cable modem from cox.. no idea what brand or model it is. Ive noticed from some other posts that T3 or higher sources commonly do that and i was trying to download a particularly popular song that im not even sure has officially been released yet ( i couldnt find it on any of the pay services i sometimes use) - and all of the sources were t3 or higher. Would that have something to do with it??? Are there certian artists that are really difficult to get? After trying and trying i finally got one out at least 50 attempted to download but its not of the best quality. I guess beggers cant be choosers. I really appreciate your help!  |
