 Different Computers Different Results I have Limewire on 2 computers. I have checked all the settings and options and they are set identically on both computers. The problem is this: Say I do a search on Sarah McLachlan for example. On one computer, the one running Win XP, I may have 205 results. However, on the other computer running Windows Vista, I only get 95 results. The one running Vista has the newest and most recent version of Limewire. I have no clue if the OS actually has anything to do with this. I point it out only because I'm wondering if it does. Again, all options are set the same. Thank You for any help or suggestions you can offer.  |

| the difference is the ultra peers you are connected to and the leafs they are 'holding'...i.e. you search horizon is totally different... a valid/real test would be to check the IP addys of the hosts on one machine, then remove a host on the other and manually enter the IP from the first machine and then hit connect...do this until the hosts are identical...wait a bit for full connectivity, then do a comparative search...the results should be about the same....
