need to know how to stop someone from downloading porn from the limewire site

First of all, you are posting in the Phex forum. This is different from Limewire.

Secondly, there is no Limewire 'site'. Limewire is a file-sharing program that allows people to connect directly to others' computers. Therefore, anything that is on their computers (including porn) can show up in search results.

There is no foolproof way to keep someone from downloading porn with Limewire. You can select 'Hide adult content' when you do searches...you can filter out words related to porn (How to filter porn & spam)...but all of this can be undone.

Therefore, the only way to be truly sure that Limewire is not being used to download pornography is to:

a) supervise closely
b) uninstall Limewire

Hope this helps ;)

not sure if I understand you stetson but is it your porn you do not want to share? (grin)

The best way, if so, is to simply create a new folder that is not among those you allow sharing from, transfer the contents, and rename it.

May be completely off base here but it was a thought. I've also found that search results with a ridiculously small number of bytes for file size are usually

Maybe I'm a help or an irritant.
porn urls. One number I see often is 1140 kb.
