I'm using the older version of Bearshare and after not being on for a couple of weeks have now been unable to connect at all
what's going on ?
( sorry I'm sort of a newbee )

Download a newer version of BearShare.

Try Gnucleus instead! Recommended.

thanks but I have tried using it and don't like it plus I have to keep my firewall on medium to use it

"BearShare uses the Clip2 DSS host list exclusively to obtain the initial entry points into the Gnutella network. "

quote from clip2.com

We have discontinued our Gnutella, OpenNap, and JXTA network tracking services. Our Gnutella host cache (gnutellahosts.com:6346) and JXTA rendezvous (jxta.clip2.com:6001 & 6002) services have been discontinued as well. The Clip2 Reflector, a proxy-and-index server for Gnutella, is no longer available for download or supported, and we have discontinued our listing service for public-access Reflectors.

best bet to get bearshare to work is enter ina new gnutella autohost
like router.limewire.com
or connect1.gnutellanet.com:6346

.. dont know if either will work tho
