I've downloaded 6 salted files today. The type where I get the first 10-20 secs of a song then blank. I message the people I downloaded from that it's a bad file, then delete it. Is there anything else I should be doing. Like yelling and screaming? It's very annoying on 56k

You should also be mellow and remain calm about the universe and it's many wonders.

It's all just part of life's rich tapestry.

were do i find soulseek please I`m begging you tell me.

I have recently had problems conecting to found sources. I have spoken to my ISP and done verious tests with them, and they have convinced me that the problem is not with them. I thought it was due to my 1 gig per day limmit. But i have been informed by them i could dl 10 gigs a day and all i would get is a nasty letter asking me to slow down a bit.

To the point raised in this thread I think with 4,600,000 + users currently on Kazaa its haveing problems with makeing solid conections P2P and bits of files may possibly go missing. I may be wrong I`m guessing. If you add to this the many recent inquiries about blocking leeches, well who knows ?

I know this is no help but I hope you problems are quickly answerd.

Those are called "drops." The studios are doing this as some sort of antipiracy method. You have to live with it, until the retail comes out. ;)
