You do not always have to wait, sometimes things happen instantly, but it is completely normal to wait - sometimes to wait for days... Be patient and it will all start flowing, really!
The ability to downlaod a file from more than one person at a time is very new, misunderstood by many people and not something which should make you believe that you will have no success in D/Ling from a single source. Also, you may start a download from a single source and other sources will come in later. Patience will be rewarded ;)
About Qtrax2 - It is probably the absolute worst client out there today and it is being used by many people in any extremely abusive and harmful way..... Harmful to the Gnutella network and a total pain for other users. Should you decide to use it, do not be surprised to find yourself cut off by other users or simply denied access. I am quite happy to admit that I am one of the people who, if I see a Qtrax2 user trying to download from me, will observe for a few moments and if I see the characteristic Qtrax2 'hits' once per second, I simply block that users IP address forever.
Hang in there, and it will all start to make sense to you very quickly...... Now that IS worrying, hmmm? ;) |
well I know where the land of milk and honey is but I don't know what you mean by qtrax being harmful to the gnutella network or how it is used in an abusive way
I can't use it because of the error message I kept getting
also how do I know who is downloading from me in
gnucleus?
sorry to be so dumb about all this
and thanks for answering
