g2 and g1 not connecting

Hello all, I'm new here.
I have been having a problem lately (last few weeks) trying to connect on shareaza.
when I start the program and try to connect Edonkey hooks up right away and g1 and g2 keeping attempting to connect with a connection error message at every ip they try in the network tap.

This just started happening a few weeks ago and I have not changed a thing with the program.
It has been working fine for many months until now.

Does anyone know of changes made to the servers that cause this or has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks.
Joe

Due to the way Shareaza gets hubs sometimes all you know are bad instead of just some and Shareaza gets stuck. Generally you just need to go to the Discovery window (F9) and query some GWebCaches, opening Host Cache (F8) and deleting cached data related to the affected networks first may help. There probably are better instructions in either the wiki or a sticky since this used to be a common problem.

Smells like Foxy host-cache pollution again. I wonder how much longer until the devs release a version that is immune to this?

WildCard has been working on the issue, but as he hasn't got much time ATM, it might be a while until a fixed version comes out.
