Search produces zero results Hi, Just downloaded Limewire onto vista home premium machine, java is up to date, When searching for any type of file it takes a few mins but zero results returned. L/wire loads ok seems to be running fine apart from this. There is a message 'Enabling open information sharing' on top left. Anyone advise where to go with this please. :confused: Also hello to all on the forum, i've just registered this evening and look forward to participating. Rgds John |
:welcomeani:jay_1498... Try these fixes....;) Go to Tools > Options > Searching > Lisence Warning and make sure the box is not ticked and select apply... If that does not help try going to your Connections Tab in limewire, if it's not showing up go to Veiw > Show/Hide and make sure the connection tab has a tick next to it... Then click on the Hosts and remove them and let Limewire search for some more... (try to take note of the hosts IP numbers if the same ones keep re-appearing add them to your host filter...) ;) Tools > Options > Filters and select the Host Filter and add these IP's into it and select apply... Try installing PeerGuardian, it will help keep the fake hosts out...Remember to enable PG just before you start limewire up...;) Phoenix Labs » PeerGuardian 2 Another thing if you are using limewire 4.13 and later you can apply this hostile list...

If you're using Vista, there's this PG2 Beta available for Vista users. PeerGuadian 2 for Windows Vista beta released - Phoenix Labs PeerGuardian 2:Manual - Phoenix Labs Wiki |
Enabling Open Information Sharing Hello, thanks for all these great tips but when I opened the connections there were no hosts that appeared...do you have any other suggestions? Thanks, horseCrazy:bangh: Quote:
