Ultrapeer
 

I have recently updated to Limewire 2.2 and now when i go to the monitor window i get the message:- YOUR CLIENT IS LEAF NODE SHIELDED BY AN ULTRA PEER. HENCE YOU WILL SEE FEW OR NO SEARCHES IN THE MONITOR WINDOW. Ialso get the message Ultra peer in the connections window, which i didn't get before . Can anyone tell me what this is and can i get rid of it. :confused:

You WANT that. It just means that an UltraPeer out there somewhere is on protecting your system from the Billions of searches that are usually routed through your machine in the 0.4 protocol. It alo opens you up to more files so its a REALLY good thing.
