The magnet links peerweb is using are only for Shareaza. Neither LimeWire nor BearShare allow searches by hash so magnet links without seed locations are effectively unuseable. Futhermore, those magnet-uris use bitprint hashes, which are only supported by Shareaza.

Is there any other alternatives that I can do. Please respond asap.

There is nothing you could do to use peerweb's magnets with LimeWire.

[muscleman1503]

Is there any other websites tha5t have magnets that are compatible with limewire?

I read that Magnet links currently only work on Windows platform using IE browser. Here is the link: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/magnet.shtml

I tried a few from that page LimeDude, and they downloaded. Using Mac OSX; my browser is Safari. Looks like that page needs updating. Thanks for digging up the link.

They also work for me (I just downloaded Hamlet).

I use MacOSX, Safari and Acquisition.
