Requery sent... What keywords are used?
 
I've noticed that downloads that have been requering for several hours without results often find available hosts if I repeat the search that localized the files.

Now I wonder: What keywords are used for the requery? Is it the complete filename?

Whatever, I think it would be better to use the keywords from the search that initially found the file(s) than the keywords Limewire 2.4.4 are using. My opinion is based solely on the expieriencie described above.

Another way to accomplish better requeries would be to make it possible to schedule searches to repeat every 30 minutes or so.

Please share your thoughts with me (and some others)...

1) LimeWire is searching for the file name.
2) LimeWire leads you to believe it was requerying the network every 5 minutes, - that's not quite true. - If you are trying to download 10 files, LimeWire will be requerying every 450 minutes, no matter what the gui says.

I don't think the LimeWire team would consider a requery interval of 30 minutes as acceptable, but they are working on another feature, that would help you finding alternate locations.

I don't know how requiries work, but original searches seem to be by letter. I regularly get unrelated finds that contain the same letters as my search:

eg. search for "war" (looking for "lowrider") you may get "raw" by eddie murphy. Am I right?
