Angry Too Slow! Help!

This is a great software! But what is bothering me and worrying me is I have been downloading for two and half hours and only got to songs downloaded. I am using a really fast cable connections that my other computer a pc is also sharing using Kazaa and that has downloaded 22 songs and shut down already.
Please let me know why its taking so long and how can I make it faster. Otherwise where do I get a Mac X software to download from.

Default URL is wrong? HELP

The url for direct connect didn't work. There was no such server. Let me know if its just a typing error. What is direct connect and how can I find a better selection of music and faster download? I also like arabic music and Gnutella server doesnt have a large selection either. HELP!

The first URL that I gave had a mistake in it, so I then posted the correct URL. Here it is again www.neo-modus.com

Default wow looks complicated

Jack
I am checking out NeoModus FAQ. It sounds really complicated. Could you give me an idea as to what I should do to download on a Mac X.2.4 G4 to down load MP3's. I am going to try it though the FAQ sounded very compicated and for other kinds of files.
Pls. let me know
Mira

Hi Mira,
I will try and explain as much as I can as I am new to the programme myself. When you have downloaded and installed "Direct Connect" go to preferences and click on the identity icon and select a user name, describe the files you are sharing and the type of connection you have. Next click on the file icon and select the folders that you want to use for your downloads and sharing. Next click on the network icon and select the mode best for you and adjust the bandwith slider, that's you ready to connect to a file sharing hub. When you have the main interface on the screen click on the connect icon. Then click on the public icon, that will give you a list of the different hubs available. It all depends on how much you have to share which hubs you can enter. i.e. 1gb, 2gb 3gb, 5gb 10gb etc. Select the hub you want to connect to and enter. Once in the hub do a search for what you want and download, or doubleclick on a user name and all the files that they have for sharing will be available to you. It sounds complicated but after a couple of times it falls in to place. It's good for getting full albums. A bit of advice, entering a hub where you do not have enough to share will get you kicked off. Do it again and they will log your IP and ban you. I done that before I knew how they operated, it's all Trial and Success!

Default thanks

Jack

It does sound really complicated and I am not sure its something I will figure out but I will save your advice and try it out with my fingers crossed. It really seems much easier on PC. They just go to Kazaa search and download. Its much easier somehow. Isn't there anything similar for Mac.

Thanks for the advice
Mira

Hi Mira,
There is a programme called " kazaa for OSX (neo)" but I do not have a URL for it.
