Default might be that, but...

WinMX has no trouble. When I leave it on overnight and look at the uploads window the next day, over 100 files have been downloaded off me with no problem. I do have a software firewall, but I let xolox go thru it (out) on all ports, and let people connect thru it (in) on port 6346 only. Also, I don't think the transfer stops cause it's slow and they are getting the file off a faster server as most of my files are only available from me. I know this cause I put -[Please Share!]- in front of all my files, and doing a search for -[Please Share!]- doesn't show any of my files unless I'm running xolox on one of my computers and do the search from the other one downstairs. I myself can download off my computer upstairs with no problems. If it is slow, WinMX users must be more willing to wait for the file, and xolox users don't want it bad enough to wait. But I don't think my connection is slow. I use a 256/128 cable connection. If this is too slow for xolox users, screw them. I'm not going to pay more than 20 bucks a month just to get a faster connection for them to enjoy cause it's already fast enough for me!
