bad host blocking

does limewire block "bad hosts"? for example, evil corporations trying to bust users for using gnutella? or do i have to add the IP ranges manually?

LimeWire does not block any hosts by default. You must enter your own IPs to block if that is what you want.

This will only block those addresses from appearing in your searches. It will not prevent evil corporations from searching you.

If you share copyright material then there is a chance that you will be found by the evil corporations. This may result in a letter to your ISP asking you not to share copyright material.
