Ok, so after I heard you guys talking about it I decided to download it, but I am getting this messege whenever I try to get a file list from a user

<[BOT]Keeper> Invalid IP in ConnectToMe, this might be because of in passive mode

Does any one know what this is all about?

As far as I know you can't download stuff from other members in passive mode.

I think passive mode is when your behind a firewall. If tha';s your situation then stay in that mode, if not then go to 'File'===>'Settings'===>'General' and switch from 'passive' to 'active'.

I think that it has something to do with the fact that I have a network. Basically the only program that works for me is kazaa. Bittorent doesnt work, emule doesnt work, agent doesnt work so basically all the good stuff doesnt work. I think that it has something to do with the ports that my router operates on. Now all I have to do is figure out how to open some of them
