Sometimes it takes quite a while before anything moves in Shareaza, especially when you try to download something off an eDonkey server. Gnutella 2 and 1 should always connect, but if you want eDonkey, you need to download the server list. You can do this from the preferences. When downloading from Gnutella, always check the speed column. If it's very low, there's a great chance that you won't get anything. Also take a look at the download monitor, which let's you see the # of available *real* sources. One more thing: Basara, are you behind a firewall perhaps?
