To enable using FileMirrors.com with GetRight:
Make sure you have GetRight version 4.5 or higher.
On the Mirror Search configuration item, the bottom block describes this and has a checkbox to enable this method of searching, plus options to enable the sharing of the URLs.
When enabled, GetRight will then (when you choose to search) use FileMirrors.com to search for more mirrors!
The more people who enable the URL sharing when using this, the better the database will be for everyone. The Peer-to-Peer file sharing programs are a good comparison: if nobody shared, they would be useless. But unlike the file sharing programs, you are not sharing the files themselves, and are not sharing your computer's resources, just the URL where you found a file--a small extra bit of text added to the search request. There enough people sharing that the database is very good!
