I have been outside the states because of work and I just got back and I read that winmx was shut down on sep 19. Is this true. Also, I have been looking at all these websites that are asking to pay for winmx, what is that about. Last, I downloaded winmx 3.53 and when I am intstalling it and it tries to connect it asks if I am using sockets. I need assistance with this.
WinMX has in fact been shut down
what is the deal with all these pay Winmx websites? What is the best alt.
Any P2P program that asks for money is a scam. They are trying to steal your money. Stay far, far away from them. P2Pforums.com has a good guide to scam sites here:

There is a way of getting winMX to work again, but it intails editting the host file. If your the "point&click" type of person, try an alternative. Check out ares

for similar community features,
or slyck.com has a news page about getting winmx to work. Yet why anyone would want to do that is beyond me . =)
I tried the other way but it gives me a error when it tries to connect during installation. Any idea how I can fix this.
I would only pay if a big tittied girl showed up at my door and slapped my face with the twins...
Deafeats the purpose doesn't it? Paying for P2P? Why not just pay for a Napster account?
