I'm new to Limewire & Forum. Grandpa's insite on no central sever was most helpfull. My complaint is about the amount of time wasted downloading a movie only to find out it has no sound, is a test pattern, has subtitles or has more skips/ hesitations in it than an NFL game does, for commercials. Why do people do this to fellow members ? First off label it properly & if it's good put it here. If it's S***, put it in the toilet. Stop wasting fellow members time.
Just a Nit

Use Bitzi lookup & also try previewing the file as you're downlding & also make sure you have a player with all up to date codecs or in-built codecs & is reliable & you will be safe from this type of thing. 1. How to use Bitzi Web Lookup, & 2. CODECs list and alternate players for Movies. It's a bit silly waiting days for a video to downld & not having even checked it out before you finish downlding it or research it via bitzi before you begin downlding it.

Seeing junk on limewire is a common occurance. I have seen what looked like child porno from title and what i know is virus ridden. Unfortunately they also have a high user number against them. Most people dont know or understand what is held on their hard drives. At the first sign of a malicious file I delete it from my hard drive so that it cannot be shared.

In searches I see obvious child porn even when looking for some songs. I tut tut at these and never download them. Yes a reporting system is needed to prevent these useless files showing up.

I immediately junk them, this can be reported back to limewire and high hits can be picked up and stopped. Unfortunately this takes peoplehours to accomplish, trustees should be set up to report the obvious and junking used to find the rest.

Limewire has to establish where in the market it is going to focus. Yes I have downloaded some porn and I have found that my uploads are mainly (90%) porno related.

My main reason for using P2P is to download songs and old applications. In moments of madness I will download the odd occasional porno file (adult). I have paid for pro and find that I am not as satisfied as I could be. Not being able to post on forums is a definate down for me.

I will continue to reply understanding why you are doing this. I will earn my respect on this forum as I have done on others.
