its a picture of a baby peeking out of a trash can. can't see the images? wants you to login? how about you register for this forum instead of being guests.

I'm sorry, but I rather prefer my privacy. Anyway, what business is it of yours whether I register at the forum or not? As far as I can see, registering brings only two benefits -- edit and delete your posts, and post attachments. And it brings at least one downside: you have to hand out your email address, and that's the kind of thing that carries with it the risk of drowning in a torrent of spam.

Auto-block eTomi hosts. I don't know what the hell eTomi is, but it is definitely not a legitimate client. Every attempt to download a file hosted by an eTomi source ends with "File Corrupt". RIAA and MPAA polluters, maybe? (though it seems to happen with jpegs, zips, and other file types, not just mp3s and videos...)

These are more in the nature of "bug fix requests" actually, and involve nuisance behaviors of the UI.

1. When there's a selection, and items in the selection move, the view shouldn't jump if there are still selected items in view. Currently it will jump unpredictably to different parts of the selection.

2. When there's a selection and it contains items that need more sources, await sources, or are busy, the Resume/Find Sources button should not be greyed out. Currently, if there are selected items connecting, downloading, or waiting in line, as well as at least one item that is not doing any of the above, it will sometimes be greyed out and sometimes not. If there is any item that is resumable it should not be.

Incidentally, what does the status "Locating Sources..." mean? I see this occasionally right after selecting to download some search results. Usually the item that shows this does so for a few seconds and then shows "Need More Sources". Also, what is with search results that "need more sources" right away anyway? Isn't that supposed to mean Limewire doesn't know of any hosts on the network that have the file? But it does -- the one that returned the search hit 2 minutes ago. In the worst case, that host might be busy. So any batch of fresh search results you go to download should end up in some mixture of connecting, busy, waiting in line, and downloading states, in theory. In practise this doesn't happen -- apparently because there are hosts on the network that return search results for files that don't exist, or that they don't actually have? Or hosts that exist for the purpose of sending search hits, but do not exist for the purpose of actually uploading files? That is bogus -- a host should report a busy signal, not pretend not to exist, if it won't or can't immediately honor a download request for a file that it does have, and it should not return search results referring to files that it does not have.

I can't seem to post this anywhere but here. What is going on? Guest posting seems to have been turned off nearly everywhere. I can't add to the beta 4.9.0 thread, or apparently post much of anything anywhere else either all of a sudden. This thread seems to still allow guests to reply however. What is going on???

Ok, Garribaldi you don't have to give out ur email incase your sorta like, Blind

Oh, and can people like put Online Games for people to download? Games like Counter-Strike or the Game extensions like Steam?

cause if you do, i will, i need Counter-Strike source now

Sorry if these have already been mentioned as I dont have the time to read 20 pages of posts.

Better Media Player
Multi-Network support (as long as security and connection speed is good)
Some sort of built in filter for ad's and virus's. (the ones that are named whatever you searched for)

I <3 Limewire so wheather some of my ideas are implemented I will still be happy!

It would be nice to have an Image previewer. When you are downloading Images, you don't know what you are going to get. If you could have a Image Previewer you could see if you wanted to get that image or not and you would not have to waste time and download it to see what it is.

For some reason, I can't seem to post anywhere else but this thread without signing up for an arseload of spam and giving up my privacy first, so I guess I'll post this here, though it isn't, strictly speaking, a feature request. (Didn't guests used to be able to post anywhere? It's been a few months, but I thought so...)

How does one view arestra files? Despite the .jpg extension, these don't seem to be any image format Windows Explorer understands, nor my paint program. These are those thumbnail-sized images with __ARESTRA__ in the name.
