Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed.

Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 If it does not work for you; UNINSTALL IT! and get something else! ...or FIX YOUR PC! I've been using 1.12 for a while with W2k without a problem. About 3 months ago I upgraded to XPpro (yes I got beta 2 and RTM LONG ago...) and still 1.2 works FINE. |

 I don't believe you. Quote:
Granted, it does run a lot better on XP Pro than some others (it's abysmal on W2k Server), but that is only due to improved handling of the memory leaks by XP. XoloX needs a lot of bug-fixes, denying they are there when every single user sees them is pointless. End of discussion. |

| I agree This program is FULL of bugs and I have given up on it and gone back to winmx, and as soon as winmx starts using multiple source downloading (available in the soon to be released 3.0 version) MANY other people will follow me. Not only because winmx has proven to be ROCK SOLID but with the new features on the way it will be as fast or faster than XoloX is. Xolox did bring many good ideas to the P2P game, but everyone else is building on those ideas and they have more resources than the xolox team will EVER have. (Hence the slow update from 1.12) I'm afraid Xolox will be left in the dark very soon. |

Then either you are incredibly lucky, or just haven't left it running long enough - upload/downloading enough files. I've had it crash in hours, and sometimes it's taken as long as 3 days (only under XP Pro was I able to get it to run for longer than 1 day without a crash), but it's never run longer than that. I'm sharing about 300 videos, so I have uploads going to other people almost constantly. I'm also downloading constantly with at least a dozen items queued at any one time. Usage might be a factor as to how often the crashes occur |

 I think you are wrong, no offence but in my case I have tested also many diferent P2P programs & Xolox beats them all!!! For me Xolox is stable, for instance, In my 64Kb ISDN modem, I´ve never donwloaded a program over 30MBs long, but with Xolox I've downloaded full programs over 140 MBs in zip format, so, XOLOX WORKS !!!!! |

| Not wrong. I can't be 'wrong': when the program causes an access violation and everything else is fine, it's the programs fault. When running the program slows the entire system down by 200 - 300%, it's the programs fault. When everything else works, but the XoloX interface hangs every other day, it's XoloX's bug, not anyone elses. It sounds like you guys denying it don't have constant uploads going out as well as concurrent downloads of 700MB files. I leave my systems on and connected to the internet 24x7 (1.4Mb DSL). I hadn't rebooted two of my systems for over a month before trying XoloX, and now I reboot regularly (every day on Win2k Server, every two to three days under WinXP) because it eventually hangs, yet leaves them running at a crawl even when I end the task. I now have four people who live in my area trying XoloX, and it crashes on *all* of their computers if they leave it up and downloading for multiple days. Add in the three other computers upon which I've installed it, and that's 7 PC's (two of them clean OS installs) where it consistantly crashes. Denying the problem exists is not helpful, if you have not done extensive testing as we have. Being able to start XoloX, download a 30MB file, and shut XoloX down before it's had time to start getting goofy is not proof enough to say that the problems aren't there. I'm sure if we took a poll, the majority of people would say they've had it crash on their systems at least once, and a good number of more intensive users would say it crashes regularly. I suppose I could really cut down the number of crashes by only running XoloX when I want to download something and shut it down when done. But, if everyone did that, it would be quite detrimental to the gnutella network. What good is it to share 45MB of files, if I only make them available to the public for 5 minutes at a time? The only real, acceptable, solution is to get some stability patches made to XoloX. -JL |
