How do I search for items with very short names?
 
For example, how can I search for the TV programme ER, or the BBC series IF...? Limewire wants at least 3 letters per search.

Is there a standard label for these files?

Thanks

put example ER. <--- put the . at the back

Thanks for the tip, but it didn't help the search.

I did get up quite a few Eric Clapton music videos, but no ER episodes...maybe there just isn't any on there?

P.S. I also tried ER*, as lots of programs use * as a wild card, got more results, but not what I wanted

You can't yet AFAIK, so need to find at leat 3 letter keywords.

"er.mpg" works to get around the 2 character limit, but probably won't get you the file you want, because the gnutella search index only starts with a minimum of 3 characters
