===========
Open (forward) ports in your router and firewall(s) for WinMX to use: one port for TCP and
another for UDP. Be sure to specify those same port numbers in WinMX. In case you're
unable to open ports, run WinMX in firewalled mode.
Your share list is sent to primaries on WPN or servers on OpenNap, thus your files may
show up in search/browse and users may request downloads. However, if their computer is
unable to connect to yours for a transfer, the attempt times out.
See links for Port forwarding site and which ports to avoid opening in
