I see, thanks for that mate

Its just that Iv'e uploaded loads of files now, some of them have been uploaded many times by different people, so statistically you would think that while those people are still online I would see my file in the normal search wouldn't you?

Another thing that confuses me is why is it that when I do a search for some artists the results will normally display songs from the people who uploaded them onto Limewire which are offline?

I'm assuming they are offline cause if I queue a song which is in the list it won't download which highlights the fact that user is offline am I right, plus its always the same files in the search results.

Am I making sence or shall I try and explain it another way?
