1. Yes!!!

WinMX is alive and well actually! Go here to get it with the latest community patch:

http://winmxworld.com

It now has UPnP capabilities, so no more having to port forward. It also has a new "community patch" to help block fake files from flooding the network and fake users from connecting.

2. A.

If you would like to help out the network: just running as a secondary will help out as other users search for files that you may have. Once they download your file, then there are 2 copies of the same file on the network which makes it even faster for a third person to get it.

2. B.

However, if you have a really good+fast internet connection and are on for hours at a time, you could run as a primary connection. Secondaries will the connect to you, and you will connect them and yourself to other primaries doing the same. This greatly helps reinforce the network.

Cheers!

Note: Be aware of fake patches and fraudulent programs pretending to be WinMX. Some just pretend to be WinMX, while others have patches that do not do a good job at filtering fakes. This causes problems to reverberate throughout the network. As long as you have the community patch you will be fine.

HEY! here's another update, MAKE SURE YOU GET THE COMMUNITY PATCH! The MXPie patch has been deemed inefficient at protecting the network, it is allowing fake files and flooders to attack the network. Also there are now people using this vulnerability to "data mine" information off of the network! So be safe and get the community patch! Go search the internet and look it up yourself!

If you are having connection problems with your WinMX how can you fix it?

Officially speaking, WinMX is defunct. However, you can make it work if you go to the WinMXWorld site and download their WinMX community patch. The original website was seized by the RIAA or whoever, so the original cache hosts no longer exist. The patch forces WinMX to use a new peer cache, allowing it once again to find peers to connect to. However, since the WinMX protocol data has been reverse engineered, there are people deliberately disrupting WinMX much of the time. They found a vulnerability that lets them flood your search results with nearly EVERY file on WinMX, making it unusable to find the files you want to download.
