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. |

 Re: Contextual menu font-size The font size matches up exactly with the font size of other contextual menus (such as right-clicking an item on the desktop). Re: Review link Being looked at. Re: Arrows Currently, there's no way. We had planned to have a new window that would show the other results, but we didn't have the time to do it before 4.0. Re: Tooltip Lots of people disliked having the tooltip pop up for every result. It's only shown now if there's metadata. Re: Filter on what's new Will be there before 4.0. Re: selections If an item came in that matched an existing result it will get grouped into that result & raise it's # count. If that happens to move the line up or down (to keep the sorting in order) AND that line was previously selected, then only that line will keep the selection (even if other things were selected). This is necessary (although the behaviour could be improved) because of some bugs with row selection in Java that extend the selection when new results are added or move around. |

| The 3.9.7 beta is released, with a few minor bug fixes. Changes include: - New default list of GWebCaches, thanks to Philippe Verdy. - Some synchronization fixes related to alternate locations in downloading. - Ignore errors related to loading native libraries for non-essential utility functions. - Fixed UI bugs with making tabs visible (Monitor, Connections, Library, etc..). - Fixed problem with selecting a value in an earlier search result filter not removing the filter from latter boxes. - Small UI fixes for the Windows L&F on XP. |

| Hi all (get registered zab--I've been hoping you'd introduce yourself so we all could welcome you and then grill you mercilessly with all sorts of questions  )--Is there supposed to be firewall detection? Both 3.9.6 and 3.9.7 connected as Ultrapeers and didn't pick up on the fact my built-in firewall was ON (I'd forgotten to turn it off). I thought something was odd when I didn't see any incoming in the Connections Pane, and no uploads in Monitors. Luser error, LOL. --thanks for the update on the previous notes Sam. I mostly use the tooltip to see long filenames (rarely to look at metadata), so will miss that feature in the regular releases. --I second et voilà's idea of the porn filter being on by default. It won't stop all, but it's at least a bit more than a token gesture. --btw--I like the way the alternate sources are totaled at the end of the results line. Much more intuitive and informative. cheers--I'm looking forward to reading the reviews of 4, watching the effect on http://www.limewire.com/english/content/uastats.shtml and hope Philippe's work on the gweb cache's cuts down on the "can't connect" posts.

2) This work is not finished. In fact the list of caches will need to be updated regularly (we can see that it should be updated at least once each month, in beta versions, and make sure that a release version contains the latest working list. If a release has been published more than 2 months ago, there should be a minor update to the release branch to update that list in the donwloadable distribution. It is not necessary to advertize this minor sub-version if there's no other significant protocol implementation update or GUI bug correction. So people that have version M.n.x should not be asked to update to version M.n.y, but they may be informed if a version M.(n+1).* is released. Such information should then be displayed automatically on version (M+1).*.* Downloadable beta versions should also expire after 2 months (so that the user downloads a newer beta, with bugs corrections and performance updates or a release): we've seen that a new component in a beta may cause unexpected problems on the network for its scalibility or on the resources of some other servers on the web. For CVS version users, the same policy should apply: a user should update its sources to get the new update.ver file at the same time. If a user forgets to get the complete updated sources, the update.ver will expire and beta tests will no longer be helpful as their results will be too old. Some bug corections are essential for a release (some releases will discard temporarily some new components that still don't work as expected, before they get reintegrated in the development branch with their corrections).

| I'm going to have to disagree with the idea of forced upgrades. If you want to implement some nagging system, that's fine. There's already the "there's a new version of Limewire" message, that has previously included information about why it's absolutely necessary to upgrade. But, in the end, it was still my decision to install the new version. I don't see the reason for taking the step from strong encouragement to force. It's enough to make some people suspicious of what all is included in the upgrade and possibly switch clients (or, edit the source to bypass the check). |

I was speaking exactly about the condition that makes the "upgrade available" alert to appear. What would be forced is the display of this information box. By "expiring" I mean really the condition that allows a servent to run without this forced message at startup. Users can still dismiss and choose to update later... But if they ignore it and restart the servent, they will see again this dialog (once). This is an important feature notably for beta versions and CVS-compiled versions (with its own signed "update.ver" file), so that preliminary code will not harm the network for too long after a major bug is discovered.

The dialog box will still be bounded, and the full URL will still be accessible and readable... See for example the presentation adopted in the web page displayed when you click on "Show Magnet URI details" for one of your files in your library.
