Bad Results From Searches It seems that most of the time the results of my searches (for music) have a couple of (what I will call) phoney files. Apparently somebody, somewhere has created a files with a "wild card name" so no matter what you ask for, their file comes out as a search result. It will have the name you searched for and be at the top mostly (lots available), be of type mp3, size 3462 kb with T3 or higher. The other one I see frequently takes what you are looking for and adds "cute girl...on web cam" and is mp3, 449kb and has t3 or higher. I think we need "some real smart person" to get rid of these files or patch the search to exclude them. Anyone else seeing this?? I see the files at FrostWire also. TYVM ed |
Try these suggestions. What I have done that works really well is to go to Tools > Options > Filter > Keywords and then add these file extensions: .wma, .exe, .rar, .html, .com, .zip, .mov. Be sure to tick apply and O.K. There are a ton of fake and corrupt files with these extensions. I will only download mp3 files that are larger than 2000kb - 3000kb. Also make sure thay have a bitrate. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/images/misc/paperclip.gif http://www.gnutellaforums.com/images...subscribed.gif http://www.gnutellaforums.com/images/misc/sticky.gif Sticky: How to find music (http://www.gnutellaforums.com/images/misc/multipage.gif 1 2 3 ...
