Tried your idea, but alas no go! it seems to attempt to connect but the quality doesn't rise above the first bar and then disconnects. i have tried everything including getting my IT guy to sit with me as we go through this thing and nothing is happening. what could be wrong? the server is set up to allow Gnutella through port 6346 and i have done everything asked of me in the setup of the program and through information gleaned from the website but to no avail. i feel like i should know what to do but must admit that it seems as though the program itself is at fault
