> Problem:

Spammers continually disguise messages by using file names that contain popular search terms or simply echo back searches performed, applying a large range of IP addresses as the source, making them impossible to block. Also, blocking a file that an unsuspecting user has already downloaded, means we cannot share other files with him or her.

> Answer:

A modified G-Mail spam model offers the best hope. Users mark unwanted items as spam, which uploads a file content identifier (MD5) to a LimeWire database. Every user sets his/her spam sensitivity level in the tool. If a file has been marked as spam by enough people to reach the user's spam sensitivity level, the file is removed from his/her search results.

What about it LimeWire Geeks?
