You're missing the point. If the person on THE OTHER END can't work
WinMX, then you don't have a file sharing system. So what is the point?
Maybe you have your WinMX working just dandy, but if 90 percent of the
people who try to trade from/with you are down, then you have no
system. Sharing ceases.

Soon WinMX will be two people patting themselves on the back saying how
clever they are to be able to use it. The rest of us have gone to
Limewire -- which seems to be completely happening, with no glitches
and lots of files.
