Hi pickaxe,

Under which column do you see the lightning bolt? Are sure that's not just a player icon? What happens when you try to d/load them?

First off thanks for the reply...When rhe results come back from your search there are collums,they are,file,type,size,rating,status,host/count and speed.under the status are three symbols,some are check marks or question marks(blue),red phone or the middle one is a yellow circle with a lightning bolt thru it...When I try to download it,I just get pending and the ammount of sources,sometime 1,sometimes more,and it never changes..thanks

Oh...OK, I was scratching my head on that one (I'm not familiar with etomi, so I can't help on that one).

Seems to be a scam or a knock off of Shareaza. As 6 pac stated, I am not familiar either but...You may be taking your chances. There are better choices out there, in my opinion, for what it's worth.

ETomi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yes we consider etomi as a scam program, as the link Remoc gave suggests, it is well known as being offered by scam companies. Shareaza is free. So is Phex, LimeWire (excluding pro), FrostWire, & many others.
