Not everybody knows how to use the filter feature in LW. Even I don't know how to use it, so I don't mess with those stupid files. It just irks me that people would be stupid enough to send that crap, that's all.

You guys are all limewire nuts, YOU know how to filter that stuff and YOU know its spam or adware or porn. But your average user does not. Heres a crazy idea for limewire : how about have the file name ONLY determine what files pop up? Obviously someone has found a way to circumvent their crap search system. ANY search makes those prank files pop up. How is that a properly working search feature?

eg. if i type "batman and hafjkhasvnjasonjvnawjvnwskevjlwnjknjk toilet dishwasher" in the search they will pop up. And you somehow defend that?

Hi Bill.
If you type that in, You will get these search results,anything with.batman,man,bat,and,has,jason,son,toilet,dishw asher,dish,washer,wash,ash,
was,her.
Thats just at a glance.
As you can only put 30 key strokes in the search bar, That search is imposable!!
But I do get your point.
If I really wanted that exact file name, I would try typing in, FIRST, "toilet" thats all.
Just type in the less common words e.g. in this song "She'll be coming round the Mountain when she comes" ONLY type "Mountain" in search.
Mostly its small common words that trigger spam results, SO LEAVE THEM OUT
When I see what I believe is a result I want, I right click on it, choose search,
and get more of this exact search result.
Now this particular result has its own signature, a sample of the first part of the
file, this is unique to that file, so now when you search, even if someone has
changed the name of that file, it will still come up & be counted as a # in the
results. # means the number of uses that have that file for share.

P.S. What part of our conversation leads you to the conclusion that I defend
Spamming. Be careful what you say, honest debate is fine, Lie about what Ive
said or, purposely mislead people on this forum & your rite to post will be taken away

P.P.S. Guana!! Dont Get Irked Get Educated.
Peace.
