I'm new to this forum, and I want you to know that if I make further contributions to the forum they will as ever be friendly, and respectful.

I love music, and that's the main reason why I have found limewire.com to be such a useful library of hits, past and new.

I have to confess that from time to time I've looked at "pron" on the internet.

I have a major concern - as far as I'm considered something has to be done - and I regret having to make this post.

When I searched for "Sex" ("clean happy legal porn" is what I was exactly after), I am presented with hundreds and hundreds of search results.

I did not search for "****", and I notice the occurence of this word in the results after my search is PLENTIFUL.

We all know that **** is illegal, that rapists are crap in bed, and that **** (whether depicted fictional or real) on the internet, is itself a very serious crime, with very serious consequences for any perpetrator. Of course, viewing "****" (how disgusting) is itself an illegal offence - where such sadly existent material is stumbled upon by accident (For example by typing "SEX" into the limewire.com search request), the simple and obvious thing to do is to delete the illegal filth.

My advice to people is support the beautiful legal porn, and do everything they can to avoid the merchants of crap filth.

So I wonder why limewire.com does not filter out the word "****" within its uploads. Why not? **** exists on this planet, so I recommend they do something fast to seek about a reduction in its occurence, rather than allowing - illegally - on their bit-torrent.

Now fellow humans - sorry to have had to raise this abhorrent issue - but frankly I want to grow up with an internet that is a good internet, through and through. Legal Porn (just "porn") is the only thing I'm interested in if I search for porn on the internet.

Hi Inkpete

Here are a few points:

LW, the company, doesn't control the content that users share. So, if you are looking for a particular class of content, Google will probably help you find a site that provides just the material you want. Sounds like using a wide-open P2P network is not the way to go for you.

Everyone wants a good internet: no group has yet come up with a definition that is agreeable to everyone, as Google and China know.

Re the "illegal" content that can be found--much of it is simply spam, or malware, with provocative titles. LW (the company) has helped train FBI agents in dealing with the really criminal content.

Nonetheless, you can filter results yourself. Just add the objectionable words to your options, in the Filter -> Keywords section.

So, with practise using the filters, you can try to see if you are able to limit the search results to show the part of the network that suits your tastes. Of course, the spammers will be trying to stay ahead of your filters and get you to click their junk, so it's a bit of a game. Like the email spam, however, it's not a fun game unless you can learn to so quickly ignore their junk that it's as if it isn't even there

One might also try www.usenetbinaries.com or something like it. Binaries are merely non-text files posted to UseNet... the oldest system of forums on the net. The above site offers free memberships but limits downloads. So don't expect to get any videos without paying.
