Angry Search for alternatives

The button "search for alternatives" would be really cool, because I often choose files available on more than one host and sometimes the transfer doesn't "die" but drag on in a really slow way, and even if the download dies, it would give you the chance to find a host with more bandwith available.

LW already does that w/o a button.

If u expect us to believe that requery works then thats bs. If limewire is supposed to requery then why doesnt it do it?. Many times i have to research up to 50 times a dl just to find the name again. This is very bad when i leave my computer on all night and find that the person left limewire 1% into dl. Maybe if someone could make a program that could just hit the research manuallly button every 3 mins then itd work better
