when i click download the file comes up in the download box at the bottom and proceeds to say connecting but never actualyl connects? can someone help me with this problem?

There are a lot of fake files around now. Usually new releases & really popular files, mostly with a huge number of sources (up to 100). If a file sits there connecting forever, chances are that it's a fake. Try to find a file with less than 10 sources, maybe cable/dsl or modem connection. You can try using the All Types search rather than Audio & search for artist or album title... this might give you different sources. It's just a pain at the moment

If there were 90 to 100 results for that particular file then chances are it was a spammed fake! Look for those with around 10 or less sources (hosts) under the # column & with 3-4 stars which represents chances of connection.

Gads my typing must be getting slow ... birdy beat me to an answer. The early bird ...
