Search Problem
 
I keep on getting the same files over and over....ones that have nothing to do with what I'm searching fo!!!!

Tried to attach a screenshot, but failed.....but brings up a lot of
"S**T gets banged" etc etc, even if I do a search for **** or ****.

Any ideas on how to fix it people? If anyone wants a screenshot, IM me and I'll send you one...

All help appreciated.

This seems to be happening a lot. I've been seeing it in a lot of posts. You can either 1. Start right clicking on the files in question and click the option block host, 2.In LW goto Tools>options>Filters>Keywords and add the file types that are showing up (such as wmv., wma., mov.)to your filter. The drawback to the filter is it will filter out legit files also.

The larger problem is that these spam files seem to be affecting the search function by reducing the number of requested files found.

Just right click on them and block host. So far it is not to bad only had to block 10 host to stop this problem. But it will probably get worse.

Those types of results can be filtered out from your search results. For a start, filter out .wmv & jpg & tick the option to Ignore Adult content. See sample image here: Adding to Keyword filter (click on link) Remember that keyword filters can be added or removed anytime so long as you press the Apply button. You can find it by going to LW's menu bar, Tools>Options>Filters>Keywords
