Direct Connect is not always easy. You both need to have available upload & download slots & bandwith.

Another method is using magnet links, & once you connect you browse the other person which has the same effect. Either browse via upload or download window. How to use Magnet Links & Direct Connect & perhaps also see http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=31006

For a start, you both need to be properly configured with your firewalls. If either of you see the brick wall icon at bottom of LW's window then direct connect will not work, & browsing would be very difficult.
