Make sure you can still choose to show all columns for ANY_TYPE searches.

I'm not sure whether it would be exactly a valuable contribution, - I can't 
remember any feature request at gnutellaforums.com of that kind. As a user I 
would probably prefer it if LimeWire saved which search columns I want it to 
show for every search type independently instead of taking away my freedom to 
view Producer, Stars and Subtitle information for my audio searches :-)
