I have recently opened up three areas of my Hardrives to give sharing to over 1100 mp3's and after 30 minutes NOT one mps was being uploaded.

these are great hits from the 50's 60's 70's 80' and 90's..

?????

You may have a misconfigured Firewall, Or a firewall in your modem/router may be blocking others from DL from you.

Well I finally have four... three ... two on right now..

Check your library window, & click on your shared folders. Then your shared files will show. Check the hits & upload columns as they speak volumes.

Also, do this test: Bug Report instructions & sample image Is the result True/False? If true then you're fine, but if it's false then you have a firewall problem to sort out.

I've got hits on just about if not all 1100 plus files.., But no downloads,, or should I say very very minimal downloads,, two .., three , sometimes four ..
then at times nothing,, almost not worth to keep open and running..

Have a look at the bug report. If 'recieved incoming this session' is false then only a few people may be able to push through your firewall to upload.
Do you see the firewall icon (brick wall in front of the blue earth)?

the firewall is Blue,, I have four uploads happening now after 3 hours..

I have a huge category of 50's 60's hits ,, some of them very very hard to find if at all on CD .

Weird
