Poisoned 0.519.1 (Mac OS X)

Set sharing, port forwarding  

Poisoned was a total dog for me for a while, but still got consistent (if not slow) downloads. Two things help d/l speed (and network connectivity - Ares and OpenFT in particular) 1) Port Forwarding. Set it up in your router / modem, or network preferences in your using OS X's software to connect. You have to look at each protocols settings in the preference pane the find the values (or set ones you prefer). 2) Sharing. Set a folder with a bunch of media (MP3s, Movies, .dmgs) on the top level and top level only, add this as one of your shared directories. It'll take a whole to catalouge, but connecting to all the networks and some download speeds (and d/l reliability) will improve. Now, if the developer can fix the OpenFT engine's occasional total-utter-crashes and the odd RWoD (Rainbow Wheel of Death) that results in a force quit and a preference purge then this'd be a pretty sweet, free, alpha release. And maybe that universal thing as well. [alert admin]

poisoned won't start  

You need to do a search for poisoned across your home irectory - delete the preferences. This happens to me occasionally when it all just goes belly up.
