HELP!!! How do i.....
 
I was just wondering if there was any way for me to block the images and videos on limewire. The only thing i want the program for is for music and thats all. i would like to block the videos and pictures because there is content on there that i don't want for the kids to see. i've gone to the filters and blocked out certain words...but it seems you can come up with pictures for everything. i put in beyonce and it poped up allowing me to see nude pics. there is no way i can filter out all of these kinds of words....so is there any way i can just completely block pictures and videos so the i can keep an eye on what the kids are doing??

you can block the extensions for the video and pics. This thread has instructions on how to do this and many keywords that you should block:

In your case if you want all video and pics gone then adding .avi , .mpeg , .mpg , .gif and any other extension that you see popping up in your searches.

Link works fine. I checked it.

well anyways in Limewire (if using Windows) go to: Tools-->Options-->Filters-->Keyword and add them there.

You're welcome.. and it will ;)

Just don't be to triggerhappy with it. If you add too many words without giving any thought to what you might be blocking, you will start blocking the music as well.
