Forum Rules

Support Forums

Before you post to one of the specific Client Help and Support Conferences in Gnutella Client Forums please look through other threads and Stickies that may answer your questions. Most problems are not new. The Search function is most useful. Also the red Stickies have answers to the most commonly asked questions. (over 90 percent).
If your problem is not resolved by a search of the forums, please take the next step and post in the appropriate forum. There are many members who will be glad to help.
If you are new to the world of file sharing please do not be shy! Everyone was ‘new’ when they first started.

When posting, please include details for:
Your Operating System ....... Your version of your Gnutella Client ....... Your Internet connection (56K, Cable, DSL) ....... The exact error message, if one pops up
Any other relevant information that you think may help ....... Try to make your post descriptive, specific, and clear so members can quickly and efficiently help you
LimeWire and FrostWire users need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link)

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.

2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated.

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.

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.

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.

10. Posts should have descriptive subjects. 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.

12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit.

13. 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.

What kind of Windows Version do you have?
On XP and 2K you should be able to open a command window and type:
start http://phex.org
This should then open a browser.
Also a browser should open if you do START - Run... and type in the window:
http://phex.org

This is basically almost the same Phex is doing when you click on these buttons.

If no browser opens you might have a problem in the Windows Registry. I would try to reset a browser as the default browser, maybe this will fix it..??

Gregor, thanx for your help. Phex is running now, Bitzi Ticket is working. I formated my HD, installed Win XP Pro with integrated SP2. I'm testing Phex right now. I'll be back with more question. Thanx again, I like it here.

I'm back with some questions. 1st:When entering search data on the left, I picked "Programs" option on the right. After clicking on Start Search "Programs" option changing to "Any Type". Why? I don't need Ice Cube mp3, when I'm searching for computer program. 2nd: Bitzi Ticket is "working", but no matter what I'm looking for or clicking on, it is always giving me just..."We are sorry......" result. It is not Bitzi error, I'm getting "real" results from Bearshare. 3rd: I do not like Bearshare because of theirs spyware in the program and fact that about 85% of any search result are virus infected files or total BS.What I like about Bearshare is SPEED between 1 to 2Mbps. Fastest speed using Phex was 13Kbps! That's useless. Am I doing something wrong? Thanx for any help.

- What bandwidth did you select? (go into options to have a look)

- The filters only work after you started a search. To make the search more specific, just include the file-suffix in your search (that's what I do )

- Bitzi: Try searching for "anomatrix .avi", and check if one of the files gives you a valid bitzi-ticket. It might just be, that you were unlucky with the test-cases.

PS: Please open a new thread, if yet more questions should arise. That makes it easier for other users to find relevant info.

arne, thanx for reply. I'll open a new thread. I selected 100% FULL bandwith. I do not understand your what did you mean by ..."the filters work after you started a search". When I start my car, I know exactly where I'm going. Well it looks like Phax need to go back to drawing board. It is toooo bad, I tought I found replacement for that stupid Bearshare.

Please try to keep a nice tone in these forums.

Your post could easily be seen as quite insulting.

PS: Filters: Just select the filter after you started the search.

Sorry if my tone is not "nice". My post should easily be seen as quite criticizing, not insulting. Criticizm is healty and should help develppers. Users are THE BEST testers they have.

Criticism is healthy, if it is constructive.

Means: How can we do it better? (And do it in a way which is actually doable... we don't have 20 hired programmers, and all our programmers work in their free time because it's fun to write code, so, if you have some ideas which need some more work, it would be nice if you had some ideas where to get additional developers from).

And besides that: Phex can't simply go "back to the drawing board". It is in already active developement for years, and changing the basic layout of the app is quite some task.

And if it interests you what's planned for the next few months, just have a look at the Development Roadmap.

Hey arne, do not get me wrong. First: I LIKE PHEX, I have nothing but GREAT respect for your hard work. I wish I know how to do coding and all the other stuff. I can help you only with testing, ideas and telling you what I thing is wrong, what I thing need to be changed in "user" point of view. So, FILTERS is one of function, witch need to be changed, then SPEED. My download capacity is about 6Mbps, upload about 370Kbps. Downloading 650Mb file with speed of 15Kbps is nonsense, nobody will do it. So answering your question: "How can we do it better ?"....I'm not sure, but I know what to do it better. Now I'll go visit Development Roadmap. Again thanx for Phex.

If you have enough CPU power, number 6 will give you the biggest boost on downloads.

I'm just doing a test which shows, that it is indeed possible to download one file from 50 (with 10 waiting) sources using less than 10% CPU (mean on athlonxp 64, ~2,44Ghz).

I get 320 kB/s on it (that's what my connection can pull).

That's with the setting: Maximum download connections: 99
Maximum connections per file: 66
