Hello,

Had the same problems but I messed around with vista a bit and found this to get bearshare to atleast work on my vista.

Right Click on bearshare icon. Go to properties and click on compatibility. I set my program to run under Windows XP SP2 and disable desktop composition, and Run this program as an administator.

Hope that will help you out.....

Are we talking about the 'test' and BearStart utility BearShare? If not then I'd assume any other version that one is using is whats giving you the connection issue.

'Test' and utility found here - http://gnutellaforums.com/showthread.php?t=53386
