AFS/AEQ not set and WinMX window all white and not responding ?

[White Stripes]

very true... the many lols that can be had on winmx chat rooms alone are worth it...

and lets put it this way; all good things come to those who wait



tho i do admit i prefer bittorrent more and more as time goes on for xfers...   (this is where robomx, wpcc, etc come in handy )

verry intresting  this read out Stripes .. even if i don t have any crash problems for winmx (not on xp ..not on 7)

[White Stripes]

those are showing where the app crashed but not so bad that it couldnt continue by asking the os 'try again?' starting the program normally wont show such crashes...

...memory leaks and overflow from too many incompletes however... thats a different story alltogether...

after having similar problems with massive amounts of incompletes i made a 'rule of thumb' that if an incomplete file does not get any further data downloaded to it, at all, within 3 months of mx use (this includes queues that dont end) i delete it and search for others.... ofc this includes 0 byte incompletes that never started...

Lots of users will look at a huge stack of incompletes in a browse as a sign of Leeching too

Its not very encouraging when you do a browse, 5000 files, to see a gazillion incompletes, a bucketload of albumarts and mebbe 5 or 10 completed files that the user hasnt yet moved to their non-shared library...

So the solution is simple:  Keep your incompletes list modest. WinMX will only load so many files with AFS and AEQ set anyway, I think mebbe 20 or 30, the rest are loadable but dont have AFS and AEQ set
