There is no way for LimeWire or anyone else to control what people are sharing. - You can enable the adult content filter in LimeWire but your son will be able to deactivate it easily.

It's probably the best solution, not to let him use the internet when you are away (I can think of a dozen ways to get porn in the internet without using LimeWire). And talk to him about the videos he has downloaded. If you make it clear to him that you don't like it if he downloads porn he will be a little more careful until he's 14 or 15 maybe.

Once your son has reached a certain age, there won't be any way of preventing him from watching porn. He will get that stuff on LAN parties, from friends on CDs or video, in IRC chats, usenet newsgroups, from various websites. That's just natural curiosity for the 'forbidden. So, be open with him about it.
