I've been following this thread as my eMule is working OK. However, the two
arrows at the bottom of my screen are yellow and have been for a couple of
years - if that's a sub-optimal connection, I'd be interested in improving
it. However, I can't locate a checkbox for Use UPnP in the
Options>Connections tab? Any other pointers?
I assume my "problem" would be the Windows firewall that KAD has trouble
with.
