These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated.

There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 File Refuses to Delete I am on a Mac, OS X (obviously) .2.6, I have been running the latest version of limewire, which I believe is 3.4.4. About a week ago, I must have tried to download a file, it went into the transfers window (it was a T-0-0-*filename* type of name, though, which I believed was temp...I don't remember trying to download any temp files from anyone). No one else has access to my computer. The problem is the file won't disappear. I have deleted it multiple times, both from the Limewire window, the hard file itself inside the incomplete folder, and from the terminal window. When I try to delete it as it is, it gives me some junk about not being able to find it (in the terminal), because the name is strange. I go into the folder, rename the file, delete it just fine, empty the trash, etc. And then the next time I open Limewire, there it is again, still not connected, still not downloading. Sitting there happily at 0.0 k. I trashed the cache and restarted, nothing changed. So I deleted all Limewire files, prefs, etc. And restarted, downloaded the beta version (5.2, I think) and installed. And there it was again. This file refuses to go away. I have run a virus scan and Macaffee says I have no trojans, no viruses, etc. Does anyone have any idea what's going on? I'm really getting frustrated and have expended all of my knowledge... I have also been getting this bug message on starting up Limewire: I've sent it in... LimeWire version 3.4.4 Java version 1.3.1 from Apple Computer, Inc.

| Thanks for the detailed information. It'll definitely help with trying to figure out what's causing this error. Just to be clear, you're saying that in the download area (the place underneath the search results that lists the files you're currently downloading), the filename of the download is listed as "T-#-#-name"? And, when you try to delete the file from the incomplete folder (or more precisely, rename it and then delete it), it reappears the next time you start LimeWire? Off the top of my head, I'd say to make sure LimeWire is closed, then delete the incomplete folder entirely. The next time LimeWire starts up it will recreate the folder. This will force LimeWire to forget any information about what it was downloading. To be extra careful, search your disk for a file named "downloads.dat" and "downloads.bak" and delete any files that you find and are in a folder called "Incomplete". |

| Absolutely, yes, and I did those things, too. Nothing worked. So...what I'm doing now is... running a disk scan on my computer to clear up any problems messed up files might have caused, and now I'm downloading the non beta version...3.4.4 again, I believe it is. Going to install that and see if it'll work. Thanks! |

| School has been keeping me way too busy to even breathe.  I did what I said I was going to do above, re-deleted the whole thing and re-installed, this time a non betal, and it worked. So the whole thing only took me about a week. Thanks for your help. |
