I stopped using Winmx for boots long ago it's still good for single songs I don't have a problem getting on but i can't seem to upload that much i can still download. Winmx will make a comeback i beleive. But i would look for other ways to get your boots
You have to use Bit Torrent. I download shows, movies, boots and whatever every day. Think of it as Winmx in two parts You download a torrent from a site then Drop the torrent in a client and thats it.
I use Azeraus as a client and their are alot of torrent sites www.dimeadozen.org is just one
