Purely as a side note. I had to open up xtra upld slots to allow GeoFan49 to Direct Connect with me. (However I've had others DC with me before without doing this.) I tend to have a busy upld list & added to my personal limited upld bandwidth (256/64 kbps) this was necessary to be sure of his success. Fabion (T3) apparently also had same success 2 ways.
