===============
The box displays whatever is at http://www.winmx.com/v353/mainbar/index.html (on version
3.53)
It will be blank whenever www.winmx.com doesn't resolve to an existing IP address, or the
site is down, or the particular html file doesn't exist, etc.
If you're using the current hosts patch, www.winmx.com should resolve to 205.238.40.2 and
what you see is actually the following message:
http://205.238.40.2/v353/mainbar/index.html (version 3.53);
http://205.238.40.2/v331/mainbar/index.html (version 3.31), and so on.
