look at your pug ins in that port they may be set up rong then see if you can get your computer to change ports to one that is working right or better than that one is

Check -if you are behind a firewall- if port 6346 is blocked.

That has nothing to do with not being able to bind to port 6346 (or any other port for that matter).

If you have another gnutella client open it is probably already bound to port 6346. Try going to the configuration tab -> network tab and then enter 6347 in the ports box.
