Lots of activity, but no actual work
 
I am a new user. The search worked okay, but how do I stop it once a bunch of files equalling the one I want comes up? My limited bandwidth would be better used on downloading once some files have been found.

I tried downloading three different files in the list, but for each one it just said, "Searching, busy 0, buffer 0" for several minutes before I gave up. There is plenty of modem activity - lots of stuff going out and lots of stuff coming in, but no downloading is happening. Is this normal?

Even when I exited the program (XoloX), the modem activity continued.

Well, I got a transfer to work, but after 30 mintues it gets all the way to the end before it discovers that part of the file was "dropped" because it received the wrong information, then went back to 54% but couldn't go any further, i.e., same "searching" message appears. Not going too well. Of course it's also deleted the file it _did_ get, so I can't even try to use it. It might have been good enough but I'll never know.
