thanks alot. that was helpful.

in the tools, options, sharing section, i have a question about the 2nd & 3rd items found there.

under shared extensions, many different letters of the alphabet show up there. i don't know what most of them mean, but do i just leave what seems to be in there by default? i haven't clicked on the "use defaults" button, just in case i mess it all up, but i didn't remove any of the items there either.

the last section: should the "share finished downloads" box be checked off? this sounds like it will share more than what is in my shared folder.

speaking of shared folder or saved downloaded music...i don't know how to retrieve the "shared folder" window that shows the musicmatch songs that were downloaded from the other day. these songs dont show up anymore in the library screen of the limewire window, just what i did today. where did it go? how do i retreive it?

i have figured out how to put certain songs into a playlist and then save it as a certain name, then open it up later. i wish i'd done this to the stuff the kids downloaded the other day. now we can't find it, please help.
