up-load testing file
 

Hello Lee, thanks for your help. I have saved a txt file with 44000001234556p2i4u5 on to my shared folder...

Waiting Host Busy
 

I found your machine - In fact I was able to browse it you have 3100+ files. However, The test file I asked you to create is 0 bytes which means you did not enter the string I specified for it to contain. When ever I try to download a file from your computer I get one of two messages

#1 Waiting host Busy --Are there people uploading from your machine ? What is your configuration? /tools/options/uploads/slots?

What version of limewire are you using?

Do you have a firewall?

or #2 Need more sources

The file is not empty, I posted just as you requested. I am experiencing the problem with Limewire 4.07,4.08, and the new beta.

It also does the same on another computer connected to a seperate cable internet access, modem, router, etc.. but same ISP. It has a dynamic IP while my main system (this one) has its own static IP and commercial cable connected to it.

My website visitors are able to download from my website (http downloads) and my ftp. It may be that the ISP is blocking gnutella traffic, who knows, will call them tomorrow.

Re: up-load testing file
 

I couldn't find your file online. Are you connected right now?

Additional Questions
 

I test a connection to your FTP server and was able to download a text file. Does your older version of limewire work?

In frustration, I brought Limewire down, but brought it back up since people are trying to help.

Limewire (4.07) worked fine 3 weeks ago. Now, no version will upload. No changes have been made from my end except the installation of 4.08 and then the beta.

BTW, re-installed winmx and it worked great. Just uninstalled it though.

Questions
 

I had a quick question regarding WINMX userbase size. I was thinking about hosting content on WINMX but I would like to know approximately how many people use that network?

As far as I know, it uses the same network and last time I checked, it's userbase was over 3mil. but not really sure.

WinMX is at 1 - 2 millions simultaneous users. A lot are from Asia where WinMX is really popular. I don't have hard written stats though.

Thanks
 

Thanks alot - I will add this network to list of networks I'm hosting on.
