Is it as hot in Sydney as it is in Perth? We're going for 40 today

Because browse host's so unreliable, there's really no way to tell if someone's sharing at all. Even the number of files shown when you can browse someone isn't always accurate...browse them 5 mins later & there may be fewer or more files showing.

Just watch out if you're going to share a huge number of files...it can cause probs & slow things down a lot. As a rough guide, I think 2000 files is about the maximum that most people can share without seeing a drop in performance. Of course, this depends on your setup.

As for the temperture today it hit 34 were i am but last week we had days that hit high 30s to low 40s

I have noticed that when you borwse a host it changes what they have.
As for sharing files that already have, i have no intention of sharing all of it whith to many people, as i was under the inpertion that it was meant to be a fair go for everyone.
But i'll say this what ever files i down load will be keeped in a file to share on the network.
AS for the set up i'm not running nothing special, just the home pc and two note books running on wireless home network, one for music and movies the other for my wifes work.

P.S The fires that we had here last week didnt help the mercury at all.
