glad to be of assistance. Now having got connected, I am joining about 200 other messagers to these forums (probably all oSX) who simply find that nothing much happens. In 2-3 hours of leaving limewire connected I have managed to share (download) half a track. Most of the time (about 90%) the prog is trying to connect but is actually not managing to establish any connection seriously enough to do anything!

Does Gnutella actually work? Or is this a common experience with not enough sharers, or too little bandwidth, or what?
