My WinMX program hasn't been up for ~ a week now. It just won't make a connection.
Is their something up with the program or is it just me?
Ideas to fix?

I'm not the only one then.

I loved how Winmx was so easy on system resources. Limewire loves to hog them.

Well crap then. Thanks for the info and here's to hoping it comes back up sometime.
Guess I'll try something else.
