I do use the program... But because it is not well behaved, I do not allow it to connect to outside addresses. May I point out your selective perception, as this is the second time I've mentioned this? You did not choose to enable browse host, it is enabled and cannot be disabled. "Choose" implies that you have an option, and this thread is about giving people that option. I share files. I do not trade or otherwise restrict access to the files I share. This is in fact the meaning of share, and whatever you are doing is not sharing. Please refrain from tarnishing the reputation of those of us who do share in the future, me d. Judging by the responses in this thread, browse host is used far more often by ******retentive folks as a means to "ban freeloaders" (we were all "freeloaders" once, by the way) than it is to find files that can't be found through searching (in fact, I have yet to find anything by browsing that can't be found by searching.) |
