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. |

 Search problemS!! HELP!! Hi... Ive been using LimeWIre for the past 6 months... but now all of a sudden, everytime I search for something, in the Audio or Video category, I dont get any results. Im a rock fan, so i keep downloading S**p*n** material. 2 3 weeks back, if I searched for "S**p*n**", i would get hell of alot of results. But now I dont get a single result. Ive tried searching in all sections, and for all sorts of things. I tried disconnecting and reconnecting. I tried restarting my computer. About 2 days back I upgraded my limewire to the limewire 4.16.6 and for these 2 days it was working fine, i got all the results for my searches. But again today its back to the usual. I didnt get any results today. Ive tried restarting my computer as well twice, and did everything i could, but i get no results for my searches.  But the stuff that I was downloading, kept downloading. Its just the search thats gone all wonky!! HELLLP!! im a girl, so these stuff r really like rocketscience to me! thanks so much! nikz.

 Is there a difference in your Connection when you're having trouble with searches?? Do the Connection Bars ever change?? Does this only happen a certain times of the day??

| hi hi ... no there is no difference in my connection. I use Wifi, but i dont think thats the problem... actually come to think of it, are u talking about the bars on the left down? ontop of the start bar? actually yeah, only one bar was green yesterday.... and it was yesterday that the search results stopped appearing again...... but that is weird because as soon as I upgraded to limewire 4.16.6, it worked for 2 days straight... and no, its all day... not a particular time... just all day..... wat do i do? |

| The same happened to me. I suppose some files that are downloaded influence somehow Limewire and make it almost unusable. I cleaned my registry with the registry buster and got rid of the spyware with the Spybot S&D and LimeWire iis getting some search results again. |

| Yeap, I'm interested in smoky eyes... But, let's work on the problem(s). Basicaly, you need a clean registry on your computer and no spy ware. You clean the registry with one program (application) and another program for getting rid of the spyware. You clean the registry with Registry booster 2 (which you can buy over the internet, or with some similar program that might be free). To get rid of spyware you will need one or more Spyware cleaners... I am using Spybot Search & Destroy. I thing it is free. You can get similar spware cleaners, but be careful because you might install some malicious programs that represent themselves as spyware cleaners. |

| Not coming on all heavy here, but, please everybody... Understand that the free versions of so-called 'protection' software is never adequate... Yes, I said, "Never." This is just as true for the free versions of the big-name programs. This is especially true for the spyware/data miner detection/removal programs. Get the real thing. Unfortuanately it is rarely possible to evaluate the quality/efficacy of the 'Pro' versions by using the 'trial' stuff... Also, beware of magazine reviews and recommendations and the numerous so-called test/comparison sites that are on the internet... There's not a lot of hard core truth floating around out there. And, as mentioned above and elsewhere, do NOT run more than one firewall application... But, when you want to try to detect and remove 'spyware', use two or three different apps... No probs ! (Normally, Ha Ha Ha.) Now, about those smoky eyes !!!???

| I've experienced the same problems. I've been searching for what used to be really popular things, music and vids, but now absolutely nothing is being found. I'll try the remove/reboot option and get back to you. BOING! |
