Yes!

I see there is a problem with the search... but this has nothing to do with any tricks - and blocking IPs is no solution too!

Do you use Limewire?
Ask the developers, where the problem is - I have no idea!

Today 12:08 CET with Xolox 1.12 (after 1 minute)

beautiful mind: 136
beautiful: 719
mind: 936

Today 12:18 CET with Bearshare 2.3.0 (5 connected hosts, after 1 minute each)

beautiful mind: 69
beautiful: 542
mind: 387

Sorry, must be a Limewire specific problem.

May be i should be a little more specific:

I run bearshare 2.4.1, searching only for videos and with the family filter on. (without these settings, you 've got the same effect, but it's not so obvious)

searching for beautiful: 11 results, 2 of them are "a beautiful mind", the rest are totally different files

searching for mind: 23 results, 2 of them are "a beautiful mind"

searching for beautiful mind: 94 results , all of them are "a beautiful mind"

Since the search behaves correctly with other keywords and since unregistered runs limewire, i really think it's not a user/client specific problem, but "a beautiful mind" specific problem.

so i'm just curious to know how some people can hide search results if the search is not specific enough and why they do that.

I also think that only one person/firm is sharing this files.

Altough these "a beautiful mind" files are available on different clients (gnotella, limewire, gnucleus and bearshare), all of the bearshare clients are older one (226, 227 or 230). Today 90 % of bearshare users runs 241. This is a little bit strange too.

i just like to read your opinion.

In bearshare is an option under setup/sharing...

Outgoing results! Here you can limit it...

Perhaps this is the problem - I don´t know if other clients have an option like this...

In Limewire I couldn´t find such an option!

Watch from which clients you get your results from... post it again here!

so, just to show the results i get.

first, a really normal result for beautiful:
http://www.geocities.com/unregistered2/b.gif

and then the flooded one for beautiful mind:
http://www.geocities.com/unregistered2/bm.gif
With the multiple sources, there is actually much more than 94 results.

And the speed values are also random, there is no 56, 256, 512 kbps.

Try it with a sreenshot... I can´t see the picture!

sorry, i didn't check if the links work with the internet explorer.

This one should be better:

Hmm...

ask Vinnie about this... I have really no idea...

I know you can limit the search results in bearshare but that seems not be a problem here - you got a lot of bearshare replies!

So the best is ask Vinnie!
