me again, thought that I would add that when I enter gnutella.hostcache.com it sayss it's connected to this and to 127.0.0.1 but it dosen't look like it ever connects to any others, other hosts scroll through the network window, but it never connects to these, and as I mentioned before, my searches never get any results. If I just click autoconnect, it looks as if it's trying to connect, lots of IPs scroll through my network window, but it never connects, no matter how long I wait. I don't know if it's important or not but I'm connected to the internet via my universitie's ethernet, they have some sort of ban on filesharing, I think it has something to do with a firewall, I didn't think that it was important since Mactella worked just fine to begin with, but I figure it would be best to mention it. Mactella worked great for about two days before this started.
