Default feature request

the rise of digital rights management has come to a frustrating situation for me.
When i download some content, I am confronted with a popup in windows media player 10 to aquire a license from a specific content provider.
When i agree to do so, I get forwarded to a poorly designed website and a request to enter my email address for a so called password COMES UP.
Then a dialup hijack executable tries to download to my computer.
My feature request is simple:
A filter built into limewire that can identify these annoying files and mark them as DRM managed; so i can avoid this trash.
ThankYOU.

First of all, this is only with porn files... So that's out of the way - and secondly, just download a decent file size (< 10 MB (above 10mb)) so it isn't risky.

Otherwise, I support this feature as most people just click at whatever fantasises them.

Default reply to reply lol

just for pornos - wrong
10mb+ safety - no filesize should be considered safe.
Now.
It is getting popular as people don't delete the fakes.
Please delete them ty.

Default supplimental

I have identified that there are servers generating file names as responses to search queries.
These are all fakes with drm to get page hits.
Type whatever you want and it'll give you a fake drm instead.
Its not porn either.

Default Pop Up

I also got the popup in windows media player 10 to aquire a license from a specific content provider from Nelly Furtado's - Say it Right. Not porn. But when I hit the link to aquire the document I got repeated pop ups for free cell phone ring tones.

Default What would solve it would be

An easy way to solve this situation would be if LimeWire would simply put in a "Over/Under" file size option. It was in Kazaa and all those other ones and always help me find exactly what I was looking for because I knew the size the file should be and went from there. I hope somebody from Limewire is reading this and puts it into future Limewires. Also if it's only available on the PRO additions then they should put that out there. All it says for PRO is that it's got advanced Search stuff but doesn't tell me what that is. THEY NEED file size options because it seems to me all the crap is on the rise and if that happens then everyone will move on to the next best thing. Anyways how can they know what your looking for and make files up? Is that a Limewire Money making thing or just a hacker thing? Doesn't make much sense to me. I've searched just crazy random words and somebody has it there. I also agree if people would not be stupid and download insanely small files then half the problems would go away. If they deleted them after making the mistake of downloading them the other half of the problem would go away.

Exclamation LRC files for ipods

I would like to see LRC files so that we could download them for ipods. Maybe we already have this feature and i just dont know it yet. Is this so? If not i look forward to seeing it. I would also like to see a burn cd feature on limewire. currently we dont have one, but this would be a valuable feature for users.

This is the only thing I agree with here. Please delete the fakes. Or rename them to tell what they really are.

I get so excited about some files and 2 days later after they are finally downloaded, I find out it's nothing but some crappy porn with ugly, sleezy, huge fake breasted girls. Or else it's some long show about 9/11, or Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle ? ? ? ?
lol .. So it's a trick to make you watch that movie? A promo perhaps by some executives of White Castle franchise ?? lol ?:P

Default Delete? Rename?

People are stupid. I've got to say that right now. I myself have never tried to download a file and have it come up something else, except once. Mostly I know what size my file should be and what size it shouldn't and that gives me a lot of information. Now you're never going to get everyone out there to delete or rename their files because a lot of them are stupid, like anybody who would think any file at all is only 147.2 Kb, if they download them then they're never going to be able to realize that they have to delete/rename them. The real key is to add the size specification to the searches. As in "Above:________" Or "Below:_______" so that if the idiot spammers out there (that should all rot in hell and have bad things done with them by really sick demented people!) want their files to be picked up at least they have to fill their hard drive with bigger files to try and trick us with. My keywords block list I swear is like a dictionary in length and always adding more as more and more nonsense pops up for normal words or phrases.
