download Q's

[aa_paris_mac]

hello,

i'm new with gnutella; so i have 3questions for those whith +experience (doesn't take much, i'm really lost..)

1) as i am looking for programs i wondered what advise you would have to give. the programs i'm trying to download just seems to be like 90-130 KB. these can't be the real deal(?) as any program weighs in at around 10-100 Mo.. what's wrong with me?

2) are the results from my program search based on the fact that i'm a mac-user so that results would show available mac-compatible downloads only? and, .sit is mac-only or is it working with windows equally?

3) what is the best way to make your files easily downloadable to others? do you create a special folder on yor harddrive, and do you compress it always as to be easier/lighter.

thanks for some input
