Angry Search results in same file over and over again!!!!

I have been having problems when searching for a certain file, for example, if I type in a search for ******, I get 4000 results but only the same two or three files over and over again and nothing else. Its extremely frustrating if Im looking for an episode from season 2 but only getting results for episode 5 of season 1. I keep clicking on Get More Results but it just spits out MORE of the same. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?!! It doesnt happen with every search but the majority of them I have to scroll through hundreds of the exact same file straining my eyes for one thats differant. Any help would be great! Thanks~

Be more specific, for example genre or whatever makes the episode you want different from episode five of season 1. Being as specific as you can will make it more likely to get the episode you want. Doing a general search for the series you want can be useful too.

It seems to happen most often when I do searches for H e r o e s, and D e s p e r a t e H o u s e w i v e s. It doesn't matter if I type in a general search or if I go specific. For Example, if I type in a search for Heroes season 1 episode 8...I still only get a hundred results for heroes season 1 episode 5, 3 and sometimes 21. The same thing with D H. I get hundreds of results but for the same one or two files. Ive tried typing in the season first and then the name of the show but as soon as I hit search I get the same nonsense. Ive even sat for hours hitting the get more results option from the drop down menu, hoping that it would eventually hit on the real files, but no suck luck.

The only possible help I can give is: Go to Tools, then Options, then Filters, then Keywords. Type in the name of the episodes that you don't want to get, and then Limewire will block those episodes from coming up as search results. Hopefully then the only episodes that will come up are ones you don't have. If you find a new episode then add it to the Keyword list and then Limewire will not just show that episode again.

If that doesn't work, then i'm really not sure what you should do. Sorry to not be much help.
