Can't Browse Hosts w/ 4.12.3

[Jacketfan]

I just updated to 4.12.3 from 10.5.something. Now I can't seem to browse an hosts. I've read through all the forums and FAQs and this doesn't seem to be addressed. Everything else seems to work as normal (a little better actually.) I really miss being able to poke through others shared files though.

I'm running WindowsXP SP2, and a Norton Firewall.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Jacketfan

Actually, this issue has been addressed in many threads.....
The "browse host" function is not an exact science, and it depends on many circumstances such as "firewall config.", "chat enabling", "hosts online", just to name a view. One time you will be able to browse other hosts shared folder, the next minute you can't.....
If you want to know more, use the search function of the forum and type " browse hosts",........
