GrinNo That's bad

I was using WinMx all the time - Does anyone know why? Is it ever coming back?

Regards - JONNO

morpheus redux.

thank-you dead and dying assh*les of the us supreme court (soon to be replaced by healthy assh*les).

i'm sure snarkridden will have an interesting story about this. meanwhile if you've neglected the magical music box known as soulseek lately - better use it while you still can. when that one shuts down it's going to stay down i'm afraid.

almost worth moving to canada to start them up again.

woah, did i just say that?

There's already a way to run the WPN with a modified host file.

1) Download a new host file from this URL: http://205.238.40.1/hosts/hosts

2) After downloading the "hosts" file (is a windows file included in the system) we can proceed.

3) Now paste the new file "hosts" in the Windows directory respective to its version:

For Windows 95/98/Me the directory is c:\windows\hosts

For Windows NT/2000/XP Pro the directory is c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

For Windows XP Home the directory is c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

Now we can replace the "hosts" file.

4) For Win2k & XP users, sometimes may be necessary use the command "ipconfig /flushdns" from the command prompt.

5) Now, open WinMx and try to connect with primary connection!

Luca, the administrator of P2Pzone.net, tells Slyck.com this is a temporary fix and the developers are working on a more permanent solution. From public reaction so far and from our own testing, this method works exceedingly well. WinMX fans will certainly have a place to call home once again.

for those of you already using hosts files for various address hacks (doubleclick, ads at google, fasttrack etc), following the site's instructions will erase your present file. you can avoid this by opening the new hosts file in notepad and copying the content below the line

# eliminated all togeather - SABre'911

and pasting it into your present hosts file, saving and closing.
