Hi jp36
Getting File/User Unavailable is usually just because that user has gone off line or in some cases it can happen if you wind up on the ignore list for reasons beyond your control or for not sharing enough files to meet that users particular settings..
Best thing is to either keep trying having your WinMX Settings for Auto Find Sources and Auto Enter Que set for your tastes.. or to find another source of the files.
There are no 'correct settings' for WinMX because there are a lot of different users and set ups out there. These settings depend on your Internet Connection type, Speeds of you Connection, whether you use primary or secondary on WInMX etc...
Here is a page that explains some basic 'To Dos' for most Broadband users
