Is there a webpage that explains how to start downloading & uploading music?

Thanks

You should download a client like Shareaza, Gnucleus, Xolox etc.

Some of these clients have help files or faqs, if you can´t get them to start you can come back and ask here...

I am using Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 with a p3 processor with 256mb ram 16GB HD at work & Windows 95 p1 with 48mb ram & 2GB HD at home.

What is a client? And what client would work with the systems that I described.

Thanks

You need a client to access to the net...

All windows clients should work.

Morgwen, thanks but the link you supplied http://www.zeropaid.com/php/top_prog...where_type=win

has over 52 programs (clients) listed which one should I try? Should I just download the first one & see if it works with Gnetella?

Yes Shareaza is a Gnutella client...

they say that somewhere...

perhaps this link is easier:

http://www.gnutelliums.com/

Note that Shareaza isn´t displayed on this page yet, but is sure a try worth!

Note:

If you download Limewire or bearshare, don´t install any of the third party stuff...

Try this page.
All of these clients connect to the Gnutella network. Basically, just look at the screenshots and the description, find one that looks good, download it and try it out. If you don't like it, try another one. Whatever you download, though, don't download Morpheus. It's full of spyware, and it has lots of bugs which are bad for the network. The 3 best clients, IMO, are Bearshare, Gnucleus, and Limewire. Shareaza is also good, but it's aimed towards more experienced users.

Thank you,

I downloaded Shareaza & searched for Guns N Roses it came up with over 1000 listings, but when I clicked on a couple to download, it looked like it was starting to work but than nothing happened, it said queued (1 source) than it changed its status to (No sources) Progress is 0% and Speed is Nil. Any idea what I am doing wrong? Could it be than Windows NT isn't compatible with Shareaza?

Thanks

When I clicked on a song to download with 1 source I doesn't work but when I clicked on a song with 22 sources it started downloading but it is downloading 4 copies of the song from 4 different hosts. Should I close all but the fastest download?
