I'm having a problem with my computer and rapster.

when connecting to default server it just says connecting but never connects. When I choose best server it seems to get stuck and never connects. Am I missing an extension or something?

I have also been having problems with Rapster. This seems to have started about 2 days ago... and I can't log on at all. It will either "get stuck" while trying to locate the best server, or it will flash back and forth between connecting and locating the server. I tried downloading Macster PR from their website, and also from Version Tracker's website, but they both give me a "404... Not found" error. Does anyone know where I can download this thing from? I usually use Rapster, so the copy of Macster that I DO have has expired. Thanks in advance!

(Oh yeah... I almost forgot! Does anyone know if there is a version of Napigator, or a suitable equivalent for Mac? Thanks!

Don't know anything about it, but cnet downloads has an app called macigator. http://cnet.com/downloads/0-10222-10...22-100-2878010

Seems like a good possibility to start with.

You can get a program called Macigator...this is a napigator app for the mac. It can be found for free at www.versiontracker.com

That being said, I am having a new problem...every time I try to download a file with Macster (through an opennap server) it fails instantly. I think my school may have blocked napster somehow, but am uncertain. I mean I can log on, select the song, they just fail instantly. Anyone know of a workaround?
