You are absolutely right Minge...I was going to mention that, but I decided
not to because it is absolutely impossible to download a movie in winmx
because it will never finish. And if you try, you may lose your connection
after after 15 hours of downloading at the rediculous slow speeds I
mentioned, and everything is lost. Winmx is a real piece of shit, and IMO
useless...Pete
