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 ....... 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 Going downhill ?

Seems to me that a lot content is gone and not much new is arriving. Had to go elsewhere to get things I would (normally) be able to get from Limewire (Or maybe my taste in music just changed) Elsewhere works well for me, so I won't be on as much. (More content disappearing)

Oh and I think he meant **** = dead

If it is svhost it is a virus masquerading as a windows program. If it is svchost it is a part of Windows and it is needed for Windows to run. If it svhost go to Norbie's world at the link below he will be able to help you get rid of it.

Then try looking for psy-trance, ******t-alternative and the likes and see what you find. Also older songs from the 90's that weren't that popular but I like. I mean those that never reached the top100. I also never used to have any trouble getting new videofiles to download, but now the seeds are on so little that about half on them stop halfway through and never restart. I have been using LimeWire for a long time now and ever since the start of 2006 it has been harder and harder to get rare files

It connects to more Bearshare hosts ... they will still be around for ages, I imagine though exactly what will happen now is a bit uncertain. Shame they never made Bearshare for Mac....
I still have that darn firewallproblem I can't get solved, so I can only get Limewire to run (properly). I do find the music elsewhere and it's using up my bandwidth meaning I am not connected to Limewire nearly as much as I used to. It's not searching that's the problem, as I have been using Limewire extensively for the last two years. It seems to me like people are afraid to share or something. I am not complaining about the content being flodded with crapfiles. I know how to get the right files when I search. In my two years I have only got two bad files. Shame on me for not using Bitzi Not that they caused me too much trouble. It's like instead of people sharing different files, all the users are sharing the exact same popular files and very few rare files. When looking for music, instead of getting a lot of files with 5-20 users and very few more than that, it is like 135 110 90 24 6 3 2 2 2 2 ond a lot off ones which often do not download. I am not talking about the most popular artists here. It didn't use to be like this

I think some are getting a bit scared off p2p .. just a feeling ...but all we see is the handful who come to the forums .. and there are millions of users out there.

Also if you search for any artist who has both popular and very rare recordings, you will only get the popular ones. The rare ones can only be found by specialised searches, or browsing hosts, the latter seems the best way to me.

I find Bitzi does not cover music files too well ... It's worth posting a report for a video .. not so much for a 3 minute song.

They were both video, so still shame on me. One infected the explorer.exe process making my PC useless. Had to delete it in commandpromt without starting Windows. Not even HighjackThis could delete it, every time I came near it CPU went straigth to 100%.

I do all the specialized searches, browse host etc.

Think they are scared.

Last time I tried to portforward. The only thing I managed was to block myself from accessing the router. I tried the advise from here and messed up Might be my ISP. I'm changing next month. Faster connection, longer flatrate + 6GB free usage during daytime. I can't wait
