Default Bad Search Results!

Hi,

I recently bought Limewire Pro, and I am finding it absolutely useless.
I have a 6MB line and up/down speeds set to unlimited in options.
I dont have Ultrapeer disabled, all my router ports and software firewall ports are opened and confirmed working.
My Limewire reports a Turbo-Charged Connection.
I dont have options set to filter any files.
Junk filter is off (at least until I figure out whats wrong)..all I seem to get is junk results.

....
But yet, I have NEVER seen a file sharing program with such bad search results.
The only thing that even returns a result is when I test the search with very common search words like Beatles etc and even at that I might get maybe 150 results in total. (Other file sharing software would return 1000's of legitimate results).
Most searches return nothing but junk, and if I filter the junk I am left with zero hits on my search.

Is there a reason that its so bad, am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for your help, I'm totally new to Limewire so hopefully I'm just doing something wrong.

Thanks
Bren
