Default What does it mean when........

So---I do a search---usually for a "newer file"---and I get 4000-10,000 returned results-----it seems like i am being spammed with results---and--this is the worst part----when i try to download any of the files---even the ones with 100's of connections---it always says "need more sources". what is this about?

i can be email at but I'll also be checking this forum.

thanks!!

Default "need more sources"

I was having the "need more sources" problem and resolved it by following the directions for entering your listening port into your system preferences.The directions differ by system - you can find it on the front page where they talk about connection problems.

Of course, it worked for a couple of days and now I have a new problem...
