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.

Exclamation Shareaza 2.5.3.0 released.

Today, Shareaza v2.5.3.0 has been released.

Since the last version (2.5.2.0), there have been 192 changes to the code, so this is only a minor version change, consisting mostly of internal changes, but you should notice lots of small things running more smoothly now and the number of possible crashes having further been reduced. There haven't been any great new features and big visible changes, except for the new scheduler, which adds a new window and much more control over what's going on - plz note that to use it, switching to "Power Mode" is required (View menu). Also, the IRC window has been made more useful on smaller screens by changing its appearance a little bit.

As always, the new version can be downloaded from our download page on Shareaza - Bringing P2P Together (once it has been updated) and from our project page on SourceForge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/shareaza/
Note that this version comes again in two different "flavors", an SSE2 optimized and a "normal" build. We do recommend using the SSE2 optimized build on every computer that supports SSE2, so on computers having at least an Intel Pentium 4 or AMD Athlon 64 processor, as it is faster than the non-optimized one.

mfg,
Old

EDIT: The credit for this text goes to the Shareaza Facebook Group. I was too lazy to write my own post.

I tried shareaza after the shutdown of my favorite one. It took a minute to get use to, the layout is nice and cool colors. After getting use to it did some file searching and was quite pleased with all the files it found alot more than my favorite but i quickly noticed that after clicking on a file to download it sit there and sit there and i was like what is going on. It would say cue in line number whatever and i wait and wait. Then i notice every now and then names of files would turn bold black while others remain grey. Does that mean who is online or offline to download from and is it always like that? if so is there a older version that is better?

i was using 2.5.3.0 it look really good but i was getting impatient with the waiting in cue and nothing happens then when a name becomes bold black it will download if it is grey it wont do nothing. Not sure why unless those peers are not online is the only logic i can think of.

hmmmm...

Do you pass the connection test? (It can be found in the Help menu and not passing it might be the issue causing you to wait.)

Wait for payday and get a new one i'm using my brothers laptop for this week then i get my hp back to working but the connection test mention firewall and ports so i check my westell c90-610030-60 modem added the ports to allow and did the same to systemsuite firewall settings and windows firewall was not on and i did the ipaddress ping test and i was behing a lan router and logged in and change those ports to allow and after all that no connection and later on the hard drive failer alarm on systemsuite flashes hard drive crash imminent back up immediately. so wait for payday and a new hard drive and a clickfree or hp simple save backup drive a month later. Thanks for all the help

Is it simply a modem? It may have in-built NAT or/& other kind of protection. Westell are known for issues. I presume it attempts to use UPnP right? You might be best port forwarding the Westell device for ShareAza.
A quick search, seems your model does have NAT, etc. portforward.com forum - Westell C90-610030-60

Unless I'm mistaken, this is your model: PortForward.com - Port Forwarding Shareaza on the Westell C90-610030-06, if not it, the instructions will be very close if not the same as yours. I never was good at maths, who cares about carrying a one or zero across. lol

Always first step is to set up a Static ip address otherwise the port forward process will not work.

OldDeath will be able to help you with ports needed for the different networks ShareAza connects through. Default 'official' port for Gnutella network is 6346, however using this specific port is not necessary, basically any port can be used so long as it does not conflict with other officially used port numbers.

Normally I'd be redirecting you to this page of our Wiki: https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawi...rewallsRouters

However since sourceforge.net has been shut off for 2 days now due to security problems, you will not be able to reach that page. As Lord of the Rings already said, the default port that needs to be forwarded on TCP and UDP is 6346. However you can use the guides provided on portforward.com for correct manual setup. Also note that you need to configure your firewall, too (and in case you are using one different from the integrated Windows firewall, keep in mind you can only use one firewall simultaneously, so you will have to disable the Windows one in that case).
