I guess I may have missed it or turned it off somewhere. Have jsut started using APEXDC but it doesnt seem to automatically search for new users. When I transferred my lists over from DC++ it seemed to lose all the users lined up so all of the files had no one to download from. Question being is this option available in Apex? If so how do I turn it on. Been three days now and I have to right click each individual file and tell it to search for alternates Thanks for the assistance..
