Host block

Go to Tools/Options and under Filters/Hosts, add their IP address to block them.

Nice, except that Linewire doesn't tell me their IP address...

It would be nice to be able to just right-click a result and select "block this idiot" from the menu.

Go to the title bar in the search window and command-click. You'lll get a popup menu. Select Location and you'll see IP addresses for all search hits. Then do as the others suggested to block the porn spammers.

Easy there, you'll burst a blood vessel...

It's command-click on the Mac, control-click on the PC. No biggie.
