I have installed WinMX as there are 2 files that I wish to have in MP3 format but I cannot get any searches to return any results

I have installed Version 3.31 but I can't get any results of the search. On the bottom left I just receive Waiting for results. This has been like it for 30 minutes.

Cool

Even if I had spelt it incorrect the Waiting for results would have dissapered

Anyway I fixed it. On Networks there are 2 options, I selected the other one and now it works

Do you have a firewall? If so you cannot use the "primary network connection" option in Winmx with a firewall, has to be secondary.

Thumbs up

If you have a firewall, you can use Primary. You need to open up 1 tcp and 1 udp port, and then configure winmx to use it.
