How Do You stop Hosts browsing you? Hi Guys just a quick question. How do you stop hosts browsing you, have searched the Board for this but nothing Some people, you don't have the browse function or the chat, but others you have no chat, but can still browse, why is this. Also their using limewire, not any of the other clients. Happens in any version, have full access to network, on turbo Also no probs with uploading or downloading opened up the ports in my zone alarm firewall personally in advanced options Sgt |

Hi CyberStalker Thanks For Replying Just wonfering why sometimes you can browse hosts and somtimes you can even if their LW Hosts. When I Got Limewire I Thought you could Browse All other Limeware hosts Sgt |

the reasons 1. they had shutedDown their comps. 2. they are not sharing any files. for the 2nd ones you can limit their acces to your computer: tool->options->advanced->preferencing change the files you must share... to 10...100 and drag the slider to Rarely |

Thanks guys for the fast replys I Don't think it's because of firewalls, a lot of the host's i've been able to talk to say they had no problems browsing me, and they say that the've no blocks to stop them , but I Can't browse them, what is going on Also I Can Not Get More than 10 Hosts no matter what I do, And I'm no computer virgin Been in them since 1974, been on the networks since the early 80s when I was downloading, well we won't say much more about that, I've been getting 10 hosts no matter if i download video or mp3, I've tried well quite a few times, and the've come down, but why no more than 10 hosts. The files has had 100s but still dls at 10 why is this, I also know about people online and not on line, that does not account for this Sgt |

If you don't want to be browsed, being firewalled is the only way to go. There is no option in LW to stop other from browsing you. Ciao
