WinMX down??

Has anyone tried using WinMX lately?? I've been trying to connect for the past few days, and I can't. I see they have a new version out (3.3), but I can't even seem to DL that from their site! Anyone else having similar problems?

I had to download the new version to access the hub. I downloaded the new version from the main page of WinMX.. hope this helps!

Just tried it (newest version of the client s/w) and it works. So no, it isn't down. Check with your ISP, some ISPs are blocking ports used by common filesharing utilities.

I had to download the new version, too, before it would connect me...

What sucks about it, Natsume??

First of all, the interface is confusing.

And they went the Kazaa route, I think... I dunno. All I know is that it takes me YEARS to download songs, regardless of how many how are sharing it. I used to think Kazaa was bad but now I use it to download music instead of WinMX.

Oh and now I have a zillion somewhat downloaded songs but since they're rare, they never finish downloading because people who have them are never online.

Grrr

Well, can anyone hook me up with this file?? Because obviously my ISP won't allow the update to DL! X-( Thanks to anyone...
