I've noticed that, when on WinMX, if I change my user name for the
OpenNaps some of the OpenNaps will still use older user names that I
may have used previously.

For example, if I change my OpenNap handle from "JoeXYZ" to
"JoeFilesharer" and then perhaps even again from "JoeFileSharer" to
"JosephSharesaLot", I may log on to WinMX again days later and find
that some OpenNaps are identifying me with the very out-of-date handle
"JoeXYZ". One problem I see with this situation is that other users
may inadvertently queue up to download the same file from me several
times, once for each user name, thinking they're trying to dl the file
from several people.

I, too, OTOH, may unkowingly be doing the same in other users'
queues.

Is there a way for a WinMX user to clear all their old, no-longer-
used OpenNap handles?

Thanks in advance for any guidance!
