LimeWire filters all requeries by any vendor. Queries (in the gnutella protocol) don't have a vendor tag so you cannot really identify who sent the query.

LimeWire is the first vendor to introduce this policy, but the impact will be on the whole network (not just on LimeWire's).

If LimeWire would just stop sending requeries and leave requeries by other clients untouched, the effect would be too small to measure.
