Default Re-Search

Ok, I got a good one.... I'm sure I am the only one that ever thought of it.... are you ready.... We need a "Re-Search" timer. Ok, let me be more specific, we sit there behind our computers and click the "get more results" tab, over and over. But, we could change that with a "re-search" timer. You could set it to find more results every 5,10,20,30 minutes or even every 2-5-10 hours. This would keep your results coming in, which I think that we can all agree that there is nothing more painful than searching for a few hours for that certain file, finding it, downloading it, and then finding out that the file is mis-titled or wrong.... and then you have to start searching again. If your computer continued to update and search for your specific file as different users come and go throughout the day.

Wow! that is a great idea!!! Take care everyone!!!

Default Icon please

Hi all,

I love Limewire, and I have zero complaints about it,
in fact, it's so great that I use it all the time.
Thank you so much for developing this cool program.

That said, It would be nice to have an icon for it.
I'm a Fedora Linux user, so a .PNG file would work for me.
I'm currently borrowing an icon, but it doesn't really fit the program, you know?
This program deserves it's own icon and branding, IMO.
Thanks, and keep up the amazing work.

i'm not sure it's been mentioned yet but seeing as you can now download torrents through limewire wouldn't it make sense to have selective downloading. You know how when you open the torrent in BitTorrent or uTorrent it comes up with a screen that enables you to select which file you want from a torrent. Say if someone has put up a band's discography and you only want one album out of say 5 you just select those files that are in the album and unselect the ones you don't want.

Lightbulb Favorite Host

I don't think it's possible now, and i think it's a useful function:
when you explore a host, you should be able to put it on a list or mark it as favorite. then you can check the host you're interested in when they got something new. You don't need to remember their ip too
