Default Limewire sharing files not specified as shared

I've been having a problem with Limewire sharing files that I've specifically asked it not to upload. Here are the things I've attempted:

1) I modified the defaults to not share files with certain extensions, and I still found that those files were being uploaded to other users.

2) Then, I tried going into "options" and telling Limewire not to share the folder in which the files were located. I restarted Limewire, and it continued to share the files.

3) After this, I went back to "options" and disabled the "share completed downloads" option, and the problem still wasn't fixed.

4) Finally, I went to "monitor" and killed all the uploads, but they just reappeared.

Has anyone had a similar problem, or do you know of a possible reason for this? I'm really concerned about the fact that Limewire continues to share files in folders that aren't on the "shared" list.

Thanks!
