currently blocking flooders

[zelhusker]

what is a flooder and why is that darkened at the top of my screen instead of patch operational? jeez am i a flooder? i have enjoyed winmx for a few years and i would hate to do something wrong. i can 't download anything since the other day and seems like no one can upload from me. i am more than happy to share what i have in my files.

it's just a different message, in this case flooder would be RIAA agents flooding the network with fake files, & blocking them is a VERY good idea, the message is just letting you know your patch is doing this as well as connecting you.

not the first time people have misread that... any suggestions for changing the message? lol

[Bearded Blunder]

How about :
Patch Operational - Blocking RIAA flooders
?
Not that it'll make the slightest difference to me.. all I EVER see in that bar is a 404 anyhow

but they aren't RIAA flooders, they are macrovision flooders

plus people will say "oh no, i'm an RIAA flooder!" - you know someone will... lol

[KM]

Patch Operational - Blocking fake file flooders

[KM]
