creeps on limewire

#1 (**permalink**) July 17th, 2005

What can we do about this??? I have a child here and was trying to download some content, both for her and for me, from Limewire. One item I downloaded had a misleading name. It turned out to be porn. Now I have no issue with porn itself, really but This was nasty. And again, the name of the file certainly gave me no indication that it was pornography.

Then I tried to delete the file. It won't delete.

These creeps, whoever they are, shouldn't be using this service!! I have this person's ID number right here with me and I'd like to know exactly how one ought to make complaints. I'd like to make some kind of formal complaint but I'd also like to know how to get rid of this file.

I've had enough of this!

Welcome to the world of P2P

#1 - There is a way to block adult content from appearing in your search results --tool/options/filters/keywords Enable Ignore Adult Content.

#2 - Nasty is a matter of opinion -- If the content in question doesn't envolve children then I doubt that there is little you can do.

#3 - There is a preview function in limewire that lets you preview files you are downloading especially videos to verify that they are what they claim to be.

#4 - You cannot delete a file if you have it open -- If you want to make sure you get rid of it close any application that may have it open --this may include limewire and then delete it. (I assume you know where it is on your hard drive?)
