AGREED!!!!

I have been suffering same problems as others here! been running bearshare fine for numerous years! Recently had to reinstall windows and new updates, this file has just solved everything!

MANY MANY MANY THANKS!

Cheeers To That File

Worked for me also(walkhouse your the man)

Ok, I'm retarded. I downloaded the file, saved it to my "downloads" folder, moved it to the Bearshare DB folder. And to unzip, does that mean to extract all? Because that's what my computer says. I don't have any experience with unzipping folders, lol. So, I tried to extract all the files from the folder. Well, I got a warning saying that "compressed (zipped) folders was unable to create the specified directory. Ensure that the directory does not already exist and that the path entered in valid." C:\Program Files\Bearshare\db\connect. So, I deleted the old "connect" file and tried again. It did the same thing. What wrong?

ok, nm, for some reason, I just had to manually browse to the same place. But, sadly, I still can't connect.
I don't get it. My vista firewall is off. I went in and turned my five firewalls off in Norton. Are there any other firewalls that I have to turn off in Norton besides those five in the advanced configuration window? What else am I missing?

5 firewalls in Norton's????

norton is THE firewall....go back into it and just delete those instances of BS....while BS is off of course...then start up BS and when Norton's pops up with the queries it gives, allow access....
