maybe for you.... I dont know what you are doing wrong, but you are doing something wrong. You can get more results from your searches using napmx. that will add servers to log onto in addition to the main ones. Speed, there shouldnt be an issue. you can trim your seach fields to your advantage. cable or better. Hit off a T3 and your all good. There is a bandwidth throttle. If used properly will make all download a breeze. Play with the features and read. Its not difficult. This is the easist of the file sharing programs out there, and if your having trouble with Winmx, then you should go back to sleep...
