OT - Problems with WinMx?

[Gerry]

I've not downloaded any music files for about a month. Just did a search on well known artists (Madonna, Coldplay, Radiohead etc) and getting very few results. There used to be hundreds & hundreds!

Anyone know what the problem might be?

This sometimes happens... not sure what exactly causes it. Remember that peer to peer file sharing depends on other users being online with the files you are looking for. It might just be that there is no-one online with that stuff right now. It could be slow connections somewhere down the line, it really is so hard to tell.

Another problem might be your settings. Check them over and maybe run the setup wizard, just to make sure you're connecting properly.

Failing that, you can always try other sharers like SoulSeek, EMule and others, just steer well clear of anything with the name Kazaa attached to it, unless of course you really love having adware and spyware

I guess record companies are sabotaging these sites. You should try Areslite
