Also, you might want to configure LimeWire to show only four-star results in the tools->options->searching window. Files from private addresses area are never four star.
Yeh that might be a good idea to change that to a four star, but most of the really hard to find stuff comes from those 1 stars that are just busy at the moment and I dont mind waiting around to get the file. If I filter those out I limit my search capabilities. I think it would be a great idea to filter out all those 192.XXX . Or filter out all those on a firewall. I have used limewire for a bout a year now and never once have I ever been able to download from a subnet or firewall. I would say half my search results are from those, so yes I think it would be an excelent idea to impliment some feature taylored to that problem.

Thanks
