N/A as a browse result either means that the server had been overloaded
at the moment you did that browse or that you have exceeded the limit of
browses set per minute. Winmx browses through the server, it's not
handled as a direct user to user request wich takes a lot of recourses
from the server. If the server is getting consumed by other processes
with more priority than browse, it will drop your browse request. The
limit on browse results and numbers of browses in 1 minute are used to
keep the server from being flooded and getting lagged. The necessity of
using those settings gets higher at the moment that the network or
server becomes bigger. Some server owners have set those settings too
tight or are running with a too high maximum users on their server.
You'll notice an overloaded server by the time of response it needs to
get browse and search results but also when you jump into a channel and
you have to wait for your typings to appear in the channel after
entering. The browse limit does not affect the clients that don't browse
through server but handle it as a direct user to user request.
