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 ....... 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
LimeWire and FrostWire users 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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Default uploading websites

I tried to upload a website but the size is like .02 KB or something so that's very small but there's more to it. Does this mean I'm uploading only one page of the site and people can't click on links to reach other pages on the same site? Do I need to also upload every page on the website?

I could type the search into Limewire, which is not open at present, and get, I would guess, 50 totally unrelated porn videos, 50 worms and 132 iPod advertisements, and a copy of the Planets by Holst.

Why would I want to look for a web site on limewire?
Why would I want to look for a video of the Rolling Stones? On yahoo, you can look for a video on the Rolling Stones. You can also look for pics on yahoo for the Rolling Stones. You can also look for images of the Rolling Stones on google as well. Not much difference there. Also, a video can also contain a virus if u try looking for a video on limewire.

I tried to upload a website to yahoo, google and other search engines but they're not easily searched even though I used keywords in the mega tags. Limewire can find just about anything.

Let me get this clear. Are you trying to put the url on limewire or as you say, the website?
I was giving you an example just like you did.

I am trying to put the website up on limewire. It's in the shared folder like other stuff would be then when you put it in the folder, it can be shared (if you allow it, of course).

forget it, we're gonna go on all night like this and you never answered my question. I said that I am trying to upload a website. What's the difference between a URL and a website? So never mind helping me. We'll just go on all night and you'll never answer the question and I'll wait for someone else who knows how to answer the question without talking to me all day and night about different stuff. If you don't know the answer to the question, all you had to say is you don't know or not reply. I'm assuming you don't know the answer. And we all know about the legal stuff. We know it's illegal to download copyrighted videos but lots of limewire users are doing it anyways. Limewire is illegal but it's been created anyways. The website I'm trying to upload is mine because it was created by me, not someone else's. Again, the websites are not filtered because I get them in my search results. If they're filtered, how did I still get websites in the search results? Maybe YOU filtered them but on my side, they're not "automatically" filtered.

Now look, I do NOT have an attitude, ok? And rambling on and on like you just did IS an attitude. I'm not interested in reading all your ramblings. And yes, I have been able to grasp what you and others have been saying. All I simply asked is whether or not I needed to upload other links in order for people to navigate to other pages. That's all I asked, not your rambling or your other comments that was something I did not ask. I like direct answers, not rambling or other answers that had nothing to do with what I asked. I am still trying to learn about Limewire and trying to learn how to use it correctly so don't "attitude" me, ok? I do not know everything about Limewire.

Let's talk about each thread I started and you tell me where I had an "attitude"

ohhhhhhhhh soooo frustrating!

time zone

tricked into downloading porn and unwanted files (I only posted once in that so there's not much)

wrong file (in one of the posts I stated I did not understand a link or how it'd help me... that's not an attitude)

what's going on?

Now if you think THIS post shows an attitude, that's because you said I got one and that ticks me off. I do not like being told that I have an attitude, whether you think I got one or not. All the threads there do not show I have an attitude. It shows how frustrated I was. Learn the differences.

Note to others: I don't want to fight with anyone else so please do not get involved or this will just keep going on. I asked a simple question and would love a simple answer... and that means no rambling or answering questions I didn't ask. Mods, close this thread if no one wants to help or if no one can help because it's not a good idea for anyone to agree with Hobo.

Uploading a website? Now I've heard it all.

Also, a video can also contain a virus if u try looking for a video on limewire.
Elizabeth81, you said this earlier on in the thread. Everyone knows that you can accidentally download a virus through LimeWire but are you aware of the fact that you can end up with a virus from the Internet as well? Viruses are not just within the LimeWire network.

As for wanting people to see this website. I think more people are going to see it on the Internet then on LimeWire. I don't think there are many people that search for websites on LimeWire.

LOL.

And, just what illigal activity are you using Limewire for Elizabeth81 Are you using it to steal games or software in your spare time????

I think this is pretty funny. thanks for the xmas laugh, I needed it tonight. Uploading a website to Gnutella is the most childish and the most dumbest thing I've read in a long time.

People that get snotty over P2P is laughable at best. You havent got a clue what P2P actually is. You use P2P for file swapping not uploading a stupid website.

Good luck with all those viruses/spam and spyware that Im sure you're downloading just so you can steal that expensive piece of software or game. or uploading a phony website that you're too cheap to host somewhere. LMAO.

This is too priceless. Im done with this. What I want to know is how do you think people will use Gnutella to connect to your stupid website LOL. You need a host with a URL. All you can do with that is zip up the pages and offer it as a zip file or plain HTML. You really, really, havent got a clue how the web works is either.

and FYI: That would be considered spam to upload pages to Gnutella and it IS NOT the Limewire Network. Limewire is only the client that connects you to the Gnutella P2P Network. and if you do have a host, most hosts dont allow spamming of any kind.

Cheers.

Default uploading ANYTHING

uploading ANYTHING doesn't happen unless someone has done a SEARCH for the item. You or myself as a LW user hosting any file can't FORCE an upload, this isn't FTP.

I don't think you understand how LW works regarding uploads

Merry Christmas!

Sphinx, you seriously need to grow up. And you need help because your sense of humor is very weird and childish. And if I'm not uploading anything but just sharing, then maybe Limewire needs to stop using the term, "uploading." And if you don't believe me that Limewire actually do have websites, do a search yourself. You're not going to believe me til you do the search yourself. I know they have websites because sometimes I've tried doing a search on something and some websites came up. Do the search yourself. I know what Limewire is and what it does, I been using it for at least six months so don't call me stupid. And my websites are not stupid. I been building websites for about three years now and I'm just getting better at it and I work at it very hard for months. Don't ever call anything stupid when you haven't seen nothing yet. Sure, you can search a website online. You can do the same for videos on yahoo so why don't we just forget about Limewire and keep searching stuff online?
