hi wisteria and welcome to the forum. i can't help you with the fonts but i can perhaps clear one thing up. english speakers do refer to winmx by several nics, one of them being winny and that leads to confusion because while the japanese do like winmx, the huge p2p app over there is called winny, but it's based on an entirely different engine called freenet. further puzzlement results from the origin of the name winny, which is based on the win from winmx.
confused? there's more.
this app has gotten it's developers in plenty of hot water with the japanese authorities over the years on a level probably second only to kazaa in austrailia. lots of lawsuits, arrests etc. development stopped when the lead programmer was jailed, but another app based on winny called share has taken up where winny left off and is now strong in asia. winny continues to be popular in japan, although to add to the confusion winmx became almost as popular after the winny arrests, but that was before the winmx servers were closed by the american developers last summer.
wow.
bottom line? give share a try. it's big in asia and development continues.
