      why cant i get a wider searches, when i do search, brings up alot of junk plus what i am searching for, but not everything that i am searching for, each time i do search brings up different users, but not the same ones from previous searches

could you add a bit more detail, such as
your connection, primary/secondary
what patch you are using
and maybe a bit about what you're searching for or how you're searching

just to help us narrow down the issue and provide some effective advice

primary connection, patch 1.0, well, example, I search family affair, bunch of junk comes up and others i am searching for, but list is short and every time i search, differentnames come up, for example, sally will have 11 downloads in that area, click on search again, sally doesnt appear but sam who has 25 to download.  I hope i gave you more details.

'tis typical winmx behavior from what ive seen...

* Silver Stripes shrugs

use oldschool search engine operators such as quotes for the whole phrase "family affair" and minus to hide that which you know you dont want like "family affair" -feud ... searching only for family affair will search for both 'family' and 'affair' incl in the file path... so you'd get results for a file named 'family' in a directory named 'affair' ...

as for the mixmatch of who has what -- thats typical behavior....
