two bugs found in LimeWire 4.11.2

[spearson]

This was posted by MicroSlob at MacUpdate and I thought I would post it here.

The person says:

I love the new search feature but wouldn't it be nice if;

• A button was made for the "Search More" --> "Repeat Search"

• A button was made for the "Search More" --> "Get More Results"

Both desperately need to have buttons, it's far too annoying to keep using the contextual menu for this.

And I found 2 bugs in version 4.1.11 Beta that could trouble for some people without high speed.

Bug 1: Larger files over the 100 MB range that simply disappear after the download is completed, no verify, just deleted. Wierd.

Bug 2: If you type something like "windows xp boot", the search engine goes crazy and adds 100+ peers to download from.

I saw no mention of a fix for either, so I'll post it here and in LimeWire's Beta forum. The search bug seems to be present from 4.10.9 to now.

If the above has been fixed or implemented, please delete this thread.

Thanks.

Bug 2 is probably not a bug at all.

Most of the worms that affect LimeWire use those terms as filenames.
In fact, that's one of the most reliable ways I use to find them. :rolleyes:
