Has anyone else been having trouble with this site? It seems to be down and has been for about the past week. Is it just me or are others having trouble getting stuff off here too? Any word on why?

Thanks in advance!

I don't think it gets many users. About 3 years ago it looked very promising but no. It flunked. Pity, because the interface is the best of all the p2p I've used.

E-donkey is king these days.

I prefer Limewire, but 99% of my useage is just for music, or episodes of Trailer Park Boys.

www.limewire.com Install and set up in about two minutes, easy even if you can't read Korean.

Laughing Why are you installing a Korean version? It comes in about 20 languages, including English!

Read my post again. I'm not installing the Korean version. When you use a PC �� in which all the computers have Win XP using Korean fonts, some of the Win install setup screens are in �ѱ���. English actually comes up as the default option for LW itself, so, as you might deduce, only somebody like Mithridates would intentionally install the Korean version.

I still reckon it's better than Ares though, I found it to be faster and it found more of the files I was searching for.
