Bugger! I've been having this problem too, it's what I came here wondering if there was an answer to. I've been using Limewire as a freebie client for years but ever since I paid up for the full deal a few weeks ago this started happening. It only seems to be on really popular songs. I was getting paranoid and wondering if the record companies had figured out a way to screw us (as we screw them I guess) out of out free downloads. Perhaps that IS it!

Conspiracy theory or technical hitch? Which is it and HOW DO WE FIX IT??

OK, as I've now established, and hopefully so have you, in another topic ("Every file is corrupt?") this IS a conspiracy and we're being messed around by "T3 or Higher" connections all (or at least nearly all) or which have dud files to make us sad.

What I've discovered, in the 5 minutes since identifying the problem, as a good answer to this is, every time you do a search get the list of results to compile according to speed, "T3 or higher" at the top of the list. Then work your way down and, using a Mac on OSX (I'm sure there's an equivalent on PC's) control click each highly rated result and select "Block Host".

Do this a couple of times and all those nasty corrupt file harbouring entities simply disappear from your search result listings.

Bliss!
