Problem found. Hostiles NJ had a listing drop back onto the previous line and leaving a blank line. One or the other caused the problem where all connection attempts were failing. File fixed and uploaded ready for updating.

WireShare 5.6.6 will be updated with the fixed version including updates for all hostiles variations of files when you next start this program version.

Why the hostiles updates? Better protection yet more hosts to connect to! Removed many redundant listings where the original listings addresses have since changed purpose, whilst adding fresh hostiles. A list of reasons is provided here http://www.gnutellaforums.com/open-d...tml#post378098 even though it is the BearShare section, same principles apply.
