no Jack, i wasn't interested in using this app, my winmx works just fine as it is.
i just wondered, because i had never heard of it, and sometimes wonder, that if i did, and proceeded to use it, i would have had the same troubles (maybe) not.
like tg said, i was just wonderin if it was within the winmx servers list already and was something i should be looking for to avoid.
by the sounds of it, it's a kind of hit and miss app, and each user takes their chances.
