The as stated in another thread, but probably more relevent here:

The reason XoloX's internal host connections aren't working, to the best of my knowledge, is that you are hard coding IPs to connect to:

IP = resolves to (alias) = bearshare's ability to conenct.
63.211.153.119 = galena.gnutelliums.com = timeout
64.61.25.139 = host3-limewire.colo.ny.np1.net (router.limewire.com) = timeout
208.239.76.100 = (unable to resolve) = refused
216.231.59.208 = vawlk.dsl.speakeasy.net = timeout
208.245.164.155 = boss.fileflash.com = refused
24.95.35.22 = (unable to resolve) = timeout

Only 2 of there are identifyable to me as common host cache sites, and none of them could be connected to when I tried.

It would be MUCH better to store the aliases like connect(1-4).bearshare.net, router.limewire.com, etc. in case the IPs suddenly need to change, so you don't have to alter your software to keep up with the changes.
