Hi folks!

After using LimeWire a couple of days I had a strange upload status "Banned gready servent" What does this mean? The user who is downloading a file from me is banned or did he/she mark me gready? I don't have a fast internet connection, so I limited the slot number per person to 2 slots and 5 overall. What is actually banning and how does this work? Can anyone answer me these questions? Thank you very much in advance

Groove on

what? the status bar says that?
You must be talking about incoming searches... [the top column on 'monitor']

As far as I know... I don't know how/or if banning is possible...

It is. Limewire automatically bans clients that send multiple requests for the same download.
