Can one user contact another? Chat?
 

Sorta new to this and the users guide only says to check or uncheck the ''chat'' option. I don't understand that. But, I've found some music on several ''browse host'' options, but they don't seem to download for me. Is there any way I can contact that host to make arrangements to share the music by other means? I copied down their IP address.

Thanks

To start with you need to have chat enabled. Tools > options > chat, tick 'enable chat'.

Right click the column headers on the search page & monitor page, tick 'chat' so that you can see who has chat enabled (smiley:)).

Now right click on a file (either one you're downloading or one that's being uploaded from you) & select 'chat with host'. A chat box will open & you can try. But... sometimes it just doesn't work for whatever unknown reason. A bit like 'browse host'. You won't need the IP address for chat but you can use that to direct connect with a host. Here's some info on d/c
