This time I have updated my limewire, installed PeerGuardian and altered my filter settings and am still unable to get search results; I just get a blank page with no information.

As far as system details, I can't be specific because Im unsure. Im on Windows XP and have been using limewire successfully for about two years.

Check out this link (Blank Page) If that doesn't help try this (The search doesnt work) scroll down to soulangel723 #6 Hopefully it will fix your problem -- pse let us know

I did not use the last advice regarding the blank page as I can see limewire and all the buttons etc. For some reason without me changing anything additional it has begun working again.

Thanks to everyone who tried to help, I appreciate it.

LW Searching Problems

Then click on the Hosts and remove them and let Limewire search for some more...
It is also wise to go to your Filters, to find this go to Tools > Options > Filters and select the Host Filter and add these IP's into it and select apply...

I've had problems with LW searching and not returning anything and this worked for me.

another searching question

Thanks for all these helpful links, guys. I was having the exact same problem. Now that I am able to search and get results, what type of files are designated for movies? I'm getting multiple formats for one search, is there anyway to "check" the file to make sure it's what you wnat before you download?

Thanks! :Smilywais:

Bitzi is a great help; Movie download issues (click on blue link) :)

Lord of the Rings-
Thank you for the Bitzi link. Utilized that. One question though, are there ANY actual REAL movies available for download on LW. I really don't care for porn and I paid a significant amount of money to be able to download "thousands" of movies. Am I missing something here, or have I just been seriously duped?

What's the deal?

Anything above 500 MB is usually safe. :) Don't forget about Bitzi; that's user feedback on particular share files. ;)

Lord of the Rings-

TY for the info, but still........are there any REAL films available for download and if so, how on earth does one go about finding them?

I search for a new movie title....I get a few options which are either commercials or porn. I search for old movie titles, again, commercials or porn. :confused:

There's a trick to using the search. Search only one search criteria such as title or star etc., otherwise it seems to invite lots of spammed junk. Same principle as described here: How to find music
