Apologies if I didn't make myself clear in the first post; I assumed other people would be having a similar problem and perhaps didn't explain the situation as well as I could have done.

That is exactly what I am saying; you are boasting about downloading AofE3 (pirated software) and this is what's causing ISPs to block P2P. I said nothing about you marking anything as junk.

Anyway, that's beside the point. Now I've explained the situation a little better, does anyone know if any solutions are lined up for the next version of Limewire? Or if there are any better methods of junk detection already available with other P2P software?

Instead of downloading it and hopeing its not a virus right click and use bitiz tick if it cant find the file its probably best not to download that one. usually when i check i click view all and at least make sure none of them say dangerous/misleading

P.s. o ya i have 2-3 antivirus programs running in the back ground at all times and just today found 5 songs on my computer that had trojans and none of my antivirus programes pick them up automatically.

Are you manually scanning you limeware folder or are you just letting them run and catch viruses that they catch in the act?

Did you scan that song that was marked junk?

biohaze; if yo have several anti-virus programs running simultaneously, they're probably going to interfere with each other, and either generate false positives, or miss real viruses. "over protected" is just as bad as under protected in this case. pick your favorite to run all the time, and when you want to check with the others, disable the main and run each other one separately.


dijital; open the limewire options, under "filters", under "junk", and hit the big "forget training data" button. that will tell your client to forget all the junk setting and start over. i had to do it recently when i noticed over 90% of my searches being trashed.

also; (unless i am badly mistaken about the nature of limewire's junk filter) this has nothing to do with spammers marking files as junk; the junk filter is based entirely on what you select as junk/not-junk on your own system, and it tries to then sort your results based on previous examples you've given it.

in practical experience, after marking too many things as junk it just seems to lose focus and start killing everything.

added; if i AM mistaken about how the junk filter works, and it really does affect network rating, someone let me know about it, ok?
