Come on guys please help

The latter one......LW won't display to you the files you share; besides, you haven't "uploaded" them, since that would require a server. LW is just a P2P client allowing users to connect to other users computer......if you won't to say, you are the server and people interested in your files will download them from you (as the "server").

Ok thanx, but how come loads of songs are in the list like when I do a search say for Elvis I get loads of songs to choose from but some are not available cause the person or persons that put them there are not online?

So to put it another way it seems that you can queue offline songs and just wait until the person comes online, so therefore shouldn't the songs I have uploaded to people be at least in the list if I'm online or not? But definely if I'm online you would think wouldn't you?

There is no way that I can give you a short answer to a quite complex matter; so why don't you just read here:

Thanx Iv'e read that but I'm still no wiser.

The thing is, what I'm trying to say is surely if a person uploads songs from me they would still be on their computer, so therefore when I do a search for them they should be in the normal search you would think do you see what I'm trying to say?

That requires those people being online at the time of your search, having not deleted, moved or renamed the file. Only when this is given, those files will show up in your search......

You know its strange cause I was chatting to a guy from Italy who just uploaded one of my MP3's and I said to him stay online and keep the file in your shared folder, he replyed I always do anyway, so I thought this is my chance to do a normal search just like as if I was after that song but didn't have it, that sort of search, anyway I typed the artist and name of song and it showed no results of my file, and then I tryed just artist, then just song title, still nothing.

How can this be?
