Arrow Won´t connect - one reason

Hi


I just tested an idea and it worked.

I had sometimes - as many other - connection poblems. One day I had the idea to observe the little file Hosts.txt

And wow, with an empty hosts.txt I had trouble connecting to anything, no matter if gnutellahosts, public.bearshare etc.

I saved hosts.txt with many IPs. Now with the trouble I restored the old file - and everything´s as before !

Gnotella (100 is mine) saves its currentlist as it seems, and if this list is empty for some reason (eg you weren´t connected to the net) it saves nothing - and you get the mess.

So make backups !

Have a nice share - I will

Ciao
Lutz
