Getting A Lot of Bug Warnings & Crashes Lately...

[docrivers]

Is anyone else having this problem? Things were working fine up until yesterday. Yesterday i started receiving a lot of bug warnings when i closed Shareaza out. It also wasn't connecting right. You could tell that it was struggling to connect. So i just updated to the latest Shareaza and now it's really having trouble connecting. It is also now crashing a lot and showing bug warnings. I'm now using 2.5.2. This is the latest version no? Last time i tried to open Shareaza it would not connect. My Internet connection is working fine. These problems only started happening yesterday when i noticed i wasn't receiving too much of a connection. Is this a problem with Shareaza currently? Ok i hope someone can help. Any advice would be great. I love Shareaza and have used it for years. These bug issues have only started recently. Thanks all.

You can try using a current debug build to check whether your problem(s) have been fixed already:
http://shareaza.sourceforge.net/?id=debug

If they haven't been, just report back here with an exact description of the issue(s) you're encountering.

Oh hey thanks Old. Yea it's weird. These problems only started yesterday. My internet connection is showing strong connectivity. It just seems like Shareaza isn't connecting right though. Searches are working ok but the actual connecting for downloads of files seems different. Just not getting the downloads like before. Who knows though maybe it is my internet connection? It seems like it's ok though. I'm surfing the web ok. Anyway,thanks again for any help.

Strange stuff. I'm getting some eDonkey connections to my downloads but they do seem less than before. I'm not getting hardly any Gnutella connections to my downloads anymore. They seem few and far between at this point. They were much more numerous before. I'm running both Gnuetta 1 & 2. Seems like i'm having trouble with the gnutellas. Is anyone else seeing a difference in their gnutella connections the last couple of days? Hmm? Can't figure it out.

Tried out the debug builds already?

My router is dropping out a lot more lately. I'm able to surf the web ok but it seems like it has affected Shareaza somehow. Just not getting the amount of sources per download that i used to get. I get some eDonkeys but less than before and hardly any Gnutellas. These same downloads had many more sources before. I don't know much about routers but maybe the signal dropping out has had some bad affect on Shareaza connections. Just getting less connectivity now. Oh well,i'll keep working on it.

Do you have Windows XP with patched TCPIP.sys? If you have Shareaza configured for patched tcpip.sys and some update replaces it, it causes odd symptoms, specifically attempts to connect to sources will fail and sources get dropped as unavailable although it is actually Windows that is blocking the connection. Getting firewalled due to router reset or firewall update can also cause things like this.

Thanks all for the suggestions. Yea it looks like my router's signal is pretty inconsistent and drops out a lot. I tested my Shareaza with some song dl's and they dowloaded very quickly so it's probably something with my router. The bug thing has stopped as well. Oh well i guess i'll have to work on my router. Thanks again all.

Have you checked whether your router gets too hot? (If you're able to cook eggs on it, you might want to install an additional fan on the device...)
