sorry new user...... need more sources...... awaiting.....only 1 host....... at least 30 files unable to download first week was ok but now i cant get anything to complete i have several from the last part of first week upto 75% done was this or is this because

a)i had a firewall config problem
b)users could not see me so banned me from downloading
c)or have the hosts just gone on holiday from home,work or school

also i have had several hits on my shared files but not 1 person has uploaded from me am i a leper can they not access my files or do i just not have what they want

running
xp sp1
new cable modem, bband
pccillin anti virus and firewall
xp int/net firewall
read post on download/upload problems re-config all firewalls to LW ip 127.0.0.1 tcp/udp
also have adware and spybot will these hinder or help or n/a

while posting this i searched for 3 audio files they connected but still at 0% 20 mins later i want to share my files but i also want to download too, it was a great 4 days download but it seems to have stopped now if i have done anything wrong i will correct it

i can see my ip on whatismyIP.com 62.252.64.14 so i would think it would work ok on uploads
