Don't know if I am in the right place but here goes.
Some months ago I downloaded WinMX and paid (can't remember the correct amount) for lifetime downloads. I did dowmload a few songs months ago and recently tried to do so again to find my WinMX has vanished from my computer. Can anyone tell me if I have been the victim of a hoax. I would download again but don't want to have the same problem.

Yes, you have become a Winmx victim. Winmx never has been, and never will be, a paid product. It has always been free but there were rogue companies out there selling it when they shouldn't have been. You can download it for free from this website.

Thank you for the reply. I have just downloaded from your suggested site and here's hoping. I Googled WinMx a little while ago and the top site looked O.k. so I investigated to find it was the very site I had downloaded from previously. Still has the various payments listed. Wonder why it is still there.
Cheers

its still there because ppl are still being scammed into paying for free software (and are paying unfortunatly)
they get round this by saying they offer a backup service when in reality all they provide is a old winmx copy that in most cases wont connect at all
all we can do is try get the word out there that winmx is free and always will be all the while ppl like ourselves from this site have anything to do with it
