How to block Host Browse
 

I have thousands of files to share, but I hate those users that browse my system and select 100's of songs they didn't even remember to exist.
How can I prevent users to browse my complete library, but still let them find files they -search- for?

You could disable chat...the browse host function supposedly works better with it on. ;)

You could also limit uploads to 1 per person...that would make it more difficult for someone to download half of your library!

I've killed the chat option, but I frequently see users loading more than just one file. I tried a REGEXP to see if there was any logic for downloading the lot, but just incidently I could see the logic. (Example, people tend to download in alphabetical order: Abba -> Bowie -> CCR -> ....)
Also, limit uploads to 1 per person would not prevent people from spunging my harddisks, it will just take them longer to get 'm all!
