Browsing problem
 
Hi all
When I look at the connections as to who is hosting. When I try to browse their site I sometimes get message that I cannot browse their site. HOWCOME if they can browse and upload from my files, surely I should be able to load from their files also!
Therefore how does one prevent browsing apart from the Listing of IP addresses being entered.
I did attempt to prevent loading from my files but that should not be possible surely, it defeats the whole idea of file sharing.
Regards to all

Browse host is a bit like chat... has a mind of it's own:)
You might not be able to browse someone then 5 minutes later, you'll be able to.
Remember, browse host has a lot more chance of success if you have chat enabled (tools > options > chat. Tick 'enable chat' & apply) and if the other person also has chat enabled - you'll see a smiley face.

For a lot more info, use the search (top, next to quick links) to look for 'browse host'. There are so many threads about this topic;)

You can't really prevent anyone from browsing your files unless you choose not to share... as you said, that's not in the spirit of file sharing!
