Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving.
Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity)
Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum.
Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules.
Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted.
Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender.
Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration.


The Rules

1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures.

3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum.

4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks.

5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem.

7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required.

8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning.

9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online.

10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents.

11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection.

12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban.

13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts.

14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam.

15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues.

Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis.


Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community.

It's good to see it worked by just copying the files. Sometimes they
will still be downloaded into the old folder if it still exists because
the filenames are stored in the data files. If funny things start
happening like downloads going missing or losing data whenever
you stop and restart, move everything back to the old place and put
that location in the settings.

Instructions for Kaspersky are here: Product Documentation
You need to set it up to allow incoming connections on your BearShare
port, which is usually 6346. See Setup/Connection to see which one
you are using.

For the modem: Port Forwarding for the Tilgin Vood 452w

Once you get a green light you can put it in ultrapeer mode and you
will get up to 70 host connections instead of 2. That's when your
searches will really take off.

Thanks again Aaron for your help!

I did everything you told me to do. Also in Kaspersky.

But still the light is yellow.

Here is the info:

TCP Firewalled (for 59m)
UDP Solicited NonFirewalled (for 58m)
UDP/IP: 91.130.#.#:6348

What else can I do?

Try a high number, between 60,000 and 65,535.

What is your internal IP address? The one you used in the
modem to indicate your PC. It should be something like
192.168.1.2. Check in your TCP protocol settings what it is
and make it permanent so your modem rules will always be
pointing in the right direction.
==> How to set up a static IP address on a Windows XP computer <==

Also, make another rule in the modem, all the same
settings but for UDP instead of TCP. BearShare can use
both at the same time.

We should check what you did in Kaspersky too. Did you
add BearShare to the Trusted Zone? (6.9.2 Page 80) Turn
on all the "Do not" rules except "Do not scan opened files".

Have you done anything in "12.1.1.2.1. Creating rules
manually" (Page 151) yet? You probably have to make a
couple of rules in there too, one for TCP and another for UDP.

Kaspersky looks pretty complicated for this stuff, but at
least you'll only have to do it once.

In the Connections tab of BearShare's setup, you can set any port
you want. If you try a high number chosen at random it might work
a little better from where you are.

That's an interesting static number. Is it set manually or are you
still letting it work automatically? That's the IP address your
modem should have in the forwarding rules.

So. I also did all the above with Port 60000. Changed it in bearshare. But still the yellow light is constantly on.

I got the static IP through the link you gave me above. My Modem has this adress. I typed it in manually.

Try turning off the Kaspersky software firewall. It's unusually
complicated and something in it's rules might still be blocking.

In BearShare enable the hosts view and watch what it is
doing for a while.
