gnucleus and windows XP

Has anyone had any trouble with Gnucleus, Morpheus PE, or any other Gnucleus clone using Windows XP? For some reason when I open up Gnucleus or any Gnucleus clone, the program crashes. It's always as soon as I open the program. Sometimes it will sit there and connect, but it will never fully connect before it crashes. Does anyone know what to do about this? I've tried uninstalling and re-installing. Please e-mail me at Aeroynke02@aol.com.

thanks

Win XP has a crappy internet connection firewall that you need to disable in order to get these programs to work. Go to

for details.

That's BS. I'm using MorpheusPE from behind XP's internal firewall and ZoneAlarm at the same time. No problems whatsoever.

WinXP's built in firewall DOES cause all kinds of problems with various programs. Shouldn't be your problem but I would turn it off nonetheless. Use ZoneAlarmPro for a wall, Try a rebuild my first install/OS didn't like each other

I have a similar problem ever since evolving to 1.7.5. Mine will run great after installing for something up to 20 hours, then hang, using 95%+ CPU usage. Subsequent re-starts will either hang before (or as) the UI loads, or crash outright. Uninstalling and reinstalling solve the problem for the next half day or so, but then it starts again. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

On the bright side, however, it has been educational. It's given me an excuse to try several other Gnutella clients. Frankly, they all s**k. This one is still the best, just needs a little something (probably a bug in XP- why would Microsoft make something that works right all the time - it would mess up their job security!)

You need to clean out your registry. Downlad REGCLEAN4.1A from the Microsoft site and run it and then try re installing Gnucleus.

That should do the trick. If you need more help email me at ctrlaltdel@phxhost.com
