Why when I am sharing over 4000 files does Winmx stop when somebody is browsing my files at 3000?

Is there any cure for this?

There are limits to what WinMX will share BigBossBoots, the 3000 files is the limit for secondary users and the limit for primary users is normally 5000 files.

I would suggest those are fairly reasonable limits and perhaps using the share and unshare folders option to rotate the shared content around is the best policy to adopt.

Thanks, I'll bear that in mond, maybe I need to use my primary connection more!

I seem to be sharing over 7.5 thousand files ok. Or am I most likely reading it all wrong.

Anyone browsing you will load either 3000 or 5000 depending on your connection & only those files will show in searches.
