Why not put an official request into the LW Beta forums here http://www.limewire.org/forum/index.php The louder the voice the better. I've already put in my request. And someone has already suggested a possible solution; Pro Stealers

A response from the devs a couple of hrs ago was that they're considering & can do it but ... whether they should do it? ... (I guess) as it also affects other gnutella progs & built in filtering brings in other issues I suppose. But I don't believe too many people would disagree with specific filtering in "this" specific case. After all, it's for self-protection.

Your opinions?
