Thumbs down Child porno on limewire!!??

hey, i just created an account to write this because i don't know where exactly to express this serious issue.

recently while downloading videos i came across titles of child pornogropahy or in other words rape videos. I checked the ip adress and the hoster of the videos has an array of videos with the same child involved.

Although this is a free p2p program, content like this should not be aloud at all!. Im not gona talk or start something with this because i don't have time, IM just letting it out if it hasn't already. I suggest makin an update that does not allow certain words like Roygold and anyother words that refer to these videos on the file name so no one can really download this content.

You really should report this if the person has a static IP

Check over a few days, maybe a week if you get the same results from the same IP. This is because if the person has a dynamic IP then you could get someone that's completely innocent in heaps of trouble.

There are links i the thread below for reporting crimes like these. These sick perverted people have to be stopped.

If you search the forum there are other threads about this issue as well.

I asure you that you are not the only one being offended by this

I also created this account for the sole purpose of protesting and notifying the powers that be of the problem of porn files. I like to look for rather obscure composers or pieces of music, but find that almost every search brings up zipped files with additions to the name I searched for -- additions like "naked", "BONUS", "cute girl has orgasm on webcam", "young and cute",or "BDSM". Because many of these are attached to zipped files, I would dream of downloading a Zipped file. I find it odd that the addition "cute girl has orgasm on webcam" came up on several searches for different titles. This phenomenon of porn files cluttering up the searches, but it is also frankly scary. It would be very easy to download one of these files by accident, and I suspect they frequently have viruses attached.

Yes this is still happening; I'm also experiencing this problem. When they come up in my searches; I mark them as JUNK. Here's a new one however; I'm searchng for games, for my four year son, right now, and I'm getting zip files that are SETUP programs for websites that promote POPUPS and Viruses. When I mark them as JUNK, they imediately get back in as NOT JUNK. Let's do our best, and keep doing it. They won't win in the end- God bless you though!

Wow, I did not know limewire had something like that... Could you really download a picture or video of porn by accident? I only download music so I do not know much of this.

Lightbulb Taking Out the TRASH!!!

Yes; it's very dishearting to find such garbage to take out all the time. I'm gong to ask LimeWire to provide me with some Garbage Bags. But look; we can't hold LimeWire to all the responsibility of this problem, we as free members must take the opportunity to help LimeWire keep this from continuing.
But please remember; if people keep subscribing [by accepting the downloads of these kind of offers], They must remember that downloads are recorded, and the member's ID is marked. And further; the tags are permantly left on your hard drives, even after deletion, so there is no excuse to be a reason that someone did not know. Being NAIVE as adults is not excuseable.
I understand that the authorities are devising and implementing actions to indite pedophiles, and they are accomplishing their endeavors with great sucess. I applaud them, DO YOU? God Bless them, please.

What are you talking about? LimeWire doesn't save "tags", there is no such thing as undeleteable
data and there is no such thing as a "member ID" in LimeWire or any other gnutella program.

Gnutella is no place to get games anyway.
There's a lot of spam and malware being pushed out there.
Try safer places like the original websites.
