Other clients are willing to generate network searches
for every magnet link. LimeWire chose not to
automatically generate a search when you click on a
magnet link due to concerns about network overload.
It depends on sources being included. We have felt
that a DHT is required to effectively handle these
types of lookups rather than a semi-broadcast network
search.
If you click on the "Find more sources" button, then
it will generate a network search.
