Default Re: Should be able to Browse Host from Monitor tab

It might also be useful if users could enter an IP address and port to browse a host directly.

But, with the ability to disable the "Browse Host" feature, most that are sharing bogus files would probably do just that. Kinda defeats the purpose I would think. I like the idea of using the feature on the uploaders. Since they found something they liked from me, then they might have stuff I'd like too.
