Default New to Limewire and LOST!!!!! (movie spam files)

Ok Like I said I am new to this and must admit, not great on computers. I got Limewire to basically watch films in English as I am studying in Rome. Another site recommended fast download for the film I wanted so I got limwire.

Yesterday was my first time using it and it was a disaster! I wanted to download the film "***". I put the title in the search, clicked dvd movie, etc...I got about 6 hits. One failed to load, one needed more hosts (not sure what that means) and the third one that did finally download was a 25 sec advertisment for shampoo and NOT the film at all. Whats happening, what am I doing wrong.

Today I entered another film title in the search engine "Gabriel" I got 120 hits ranging from "chained lesbian with big **** gets toys in *****" to "king fu panda" to "Katt Williams The Pimp Chronicles" Everything EXCEPT the film I actually wanted!!

Am I not doing something...how can I type in the name of a movie and get 120 responses non of which have ANYTHING to do with the film I actually want!

Please, please help.

Thank you so much

IrishGussie

This has been a well discussed issue.

Check the advice here: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/downlo...wire-spam.html

Also when searching, which is something you seemed to forget to do on these forums, or read the forum rules, only search one criteria such as title or such. If you select multiple, you will attract spam for sure.
