Forum Rules

Support Forums

Before you post to one of the specific Client Help and Support Conferences in Gnutella Client Forums please look through other threads and Stickies that may answer your questions. Most problems are not new. The Search function is most useful. Also the red Stickies have answers to the most commonly asked questions. (over 90 percent).
If your problem is not resolved by a search of the forums, please take the next step and post in the appropriate forum. There are many members who will be glad to help.
If you are new to the world of file sharing please do not be shy! Everyone was ‘new’ when they first started.

When posting, please include details for:
Your Operating System ....... Your version of your Gnutella Client (* this is important for helping solve problems) ....... Your Internet connection (56K, Cable, DSL) ....... The exact error message, if one pops up
Any other relevant information that you think may help ....... Try to make your post descriptive, specific, and clear so members can quickly and efficiently help you. To aid helpers in solving download/upload problems, LimeWire and Frostwire users must specify whether they are downloading a torrent file or a file from the Gnutella network.
Members need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link)


Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving.
Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity)
Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum.
Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules.
Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted.
Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender.
Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration.


The Rules

1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences.

2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures.

3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum.

4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks.

5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive.

6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem.

7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required.

8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning.

9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning.

10. Posts should have descriptive subjects. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents.

11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection.

12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising.

13. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues.

Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis.


Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community.

if this is a first time, one time, occurrence then forensic analysis of your HDD would prove that....

darin's boot and nuke is also available in .ISO format which can be put on a CD and booted from just like the floppy file...if you are that paranoid and want to follow that route then be aware that you do have a project for yourself...backing up all important data...doing the boot and nuke...then the reinstall of your OS...make sure to have ALL drivers available for use and install your chipset drivers just after you boot into the clean OS the first time then reboot and install other drivers...the chipset drivers are MotherBoard specific and tell it how to operate with the OS...

I would suggest that the first thing you do after getting basic drivers and such installed is to do a full update on the OS, then start installing the programs you wish...then upon completion of all the dirty work defrag the drive and go on with life....
so i can doo al this by burning on a cd..hmm lemmie check n see if i have a cd burner and blank

alright - im still learning bout this stuff, i do appreciate the knowledge. btw i dont have a burner. so they were deleted and defragged. i read up a few posts up that if they are deleted which they are then i stand a chance explaining myself if fbi investigate me, may. but thats their waste of time being A) i dont have any potential or real illegal files on the drive B) they may not have been even real illgeal movies - perhaps they were just tagged pedo or 14yo - but in fact just another misltagged tag (which many seem to be jsut tags, example, was downloading a gay porn tagged gay and came out was about some girl ****ing a guy, mistagged, maybe these were misstagged too)

so im not too worried now that im using my logical brain. its just really doesnt seem worth my stress to use these programs. then again maybe i should look before i leap rather than hit shift and download many files tagged one thing which may be tagged with something else as well.

example: "hey ill enter gay porn into the search" hey look 20 files, weee!!!! click, download all....hey what the? whats this in my folder? oh god what if its real? DELETE DELETE DELETE... this has happened in the past when i download multiple files. thats why i swicthed to frostwire but yet again filtering wasnt enough - means i cant download multple files - i have to read each file being before downloading...which sucks cause i like downloading many files cause many wont download fast enough lol

If you want to read up on p2p, I'd suggest looking at Gnutella for Users - Gnufu

There you can find info how Gnutella works in a style which is easy to understand without having to dig RFCs first.

Getting a decent cleaner program is not a bad idea. Also being careful what you download. Using Bitzi, also preview your files as downloading to be sure they are what you were wanting. Movie download issues (click on blue link) & also How to find music in which the same principles apply to videos.

In the latter days of Kazaa it did. It was spammed with junk in an attempt to prevent people sharing copyright files in the same way other networks such as Gnutella have been attacked by such organisations; Beware of Fake files in search results, as well as porn organisations attempting to protect their products, spamming samples of their works, generally in .mov format.

Check both Arne_Barbe's post in this thread, also Peerless. In fact, do a search for previous posts by Peerless, he has recommended the best cleaners to go for. Not sure if it's in this thread or not.

Not much we can do about the secret tagging. Bitzi is a good way however to check the validity of a file. Bitzi site recently has been under problems, so hopefully it will be back to normal soon.
