Yeah, like most people don't use it to download copyrighted material. I'm hardly in a position to condemn it, just pointing out an irony. lol

I did manage to download one track off Morpheus Preview the other day(woohoo!), but it took me three days to do it. 90% of my trys end in failure to connect and the odd few that connect usually blow out in a few minutes. If this is because people close out Freeloaders, how many tracks to you have to have on your machine to stop this from happening? I usually keep between 60 - 100, as I don't have a lot of memory space left on my PC (less than a Gb, in fact).

I've tried to download Limewire, but can't get round a Java problem that keeps shutting the program down before it even starts. I asked a question about it in the Limewire forum but no-one has answered it (and I had version 1.3.1, so its not because its looking for the wrong version). So I downloaded Bearshare last night but haven't had a chance to try it properly yet. Seems very slow to connect, though. 15 mins now and its still trying.

Maybe I will try your suggestion, as I'm getting nowhere fast with the others. Thanx
