Default Limewire problem with the site

Looking at my ftp numbers, I've noticed that I've gotten a lot of links listed with Limewire in my total URLs listing. Now it's not a lot, but want to put a stop to that before it becomes a problem, as bandwidth is paid for etc.

Is it possible for someone to use this to access a site, and Anyone know of a way to block ppp like limewire if this is true? I don't use programs like that, so no clue

I'm assuming limewire has an internal browser. Why would you want to block legitimate traffic like that ?

Because I do.

Not fair to my members who support the site, or the bandwidth, and we have enough problems with people trying to sell our content to unsuspecting people, and add to that people who just have to have EVERYTHING even if they never use it. I'm a resource site, and used by my community to serve very badly needed resources to game table authors, and the more people leeching of my site, the less I have for those authors. Don't care about numbers or revenue or anything, just a smallish site that's important to the development of pinball tables.
