But it will get worse as time goes on and if they change IP addresses you will have to do it all over again. But for now it is the only solution that I know of.

And it is not just in LimeWire it is in the net all p2p programs will get the same search results.
This does not address the principal issue in the first message - that the same mechanism that is causing the spam files to appear is also blocking access to many files that the user actually wants to find as a result of their searches. Its as if the Net is a lot smaller than it used to be.
