anysone have these problems w soulseek?

[capybara]

you can find alot of stuff on soulseek but u will find some problems too:

1. a memory leak [ram use keeps increasing] of about 1 MB per hour. i guess this is no big deal, i ran soulseek for a week straight b4 this crashed my system.

2. it doesnt respect you choices of which files to share or not. several times ive seen people able to download files i did not check as shared.

3. some mpeg files have a built - in connection to web sites. run the mpeg, it runs for awhile and then takes u to a website without asking pertmission.
even when no browser was opened when u started to run the mpeg.

4. all this happens inspite of using zone alarm and a router!

anyone else have any of these problems?

2. bug
3. has nothing to do with soulseek
4. how exactly would a router or software filtering affect any of this?

BingBongWongFooey: do you mean bug as in virus/ worm/adware/ whatever? because ive run both avg and adaware6 and found nothing and. or do you mean bug as in
"that program is buggy" meaning has errors in its program ?

The latter. It means that there's a problem in the way the program is designed/coded.
