Default Search Giving Tons of Wrong Results

When i search i get about 200 results for Across the Sea by Weezer. Only about 25 of them are the actual song.

What is up with the new search in 2.3.0???

I have the same experience with LW 230 Pro. I put in:
Title: Editions of You
Artist: Roxy Music

and I got back results like:

Jerky Boys - The Gay Model

What do you expect with a hash system like LW has now ?
It's completely scrued ...
It's not the fault of the LW on your end but those SuperPeers .
They keept the hashes of their clients and they're sending the wrong results back .

Having same search problems in 2.3.1beta as well.
Also noticed that protocol .4 has been replaced by .6.

thanks for your support.

It's hasen't been replaced .
LW will accept 0.4 , 0.5 , 0.6 and UltraPeer connections .
But it will always drop a 0.x connection in favor of an UltraPeer connection , either as client or SuperPeer mode .
Soon we will be using 0.7 . There still discussing the small details .

Actually this is a problem with LW 1.8. This version of LimeWire matched "metadata queries" incorrectly. We're releasing a filter for these bad results in an upcoming service release.

Thank you for your comments. VTOLFreak and crohrs.

It would be also nice to be able to select any column in the search results fields to download a file rather than just the name field.

Thanks for your support.
