Default BLOCK HOST (ALL)

BLOCK HOST only offers a single IP to be blocked, even when a "gobbledygook" search returns dozens of spammer IPs (all spam candidates for blocking).

The solution for Limewire should be simple to program. Add a radio button to the BLOCK HOST dialogue box popup. Something akin to: "DO YOU WANT TO BLOCK SEARCH RESULTS FROM ALL HOSTS IN THIS SELECTION".

If someone setup an hourly gobbldygook search and spammer host-blocking-IP list to hook into Limewire!, that would be ideal. This easy feature add would help us users who want to do something about spam to our setup. It can also be used by anti-porn-types and parents to mass-block IPs offering certain filename keywords.

There is NO EXCUSE for not adding something this easy immediately!

Spare us "net congestion" whining. The search results have already returned lists of spamming IP hosts. ALLOW US TO ADD ALL RETURNED IPs TO OUR BLOCKED HOSTS LIST! We already know how to clear that banned hosts list if we make a mistake... Offering only the first spammer IP to block is insulting and time wasting. I'll just contribute to the net congestion repeating the gobbledygook search over and over and over and over and over and over...
