Hi, I'm on a Superfast university network, and since I got iTunes 4 I've often seen 'Scott's Music' pop up, and occasionally other guys. I've had as many as 3 other people sharing. Thing is, whenever I click on Scott's music, it says 'loading scott's music', and promptly doesn't. Why? If he was not online etc his name wouldn't pop up in the first place would it? Also when there was another name under sharing, I couldn't access that either. What gives?

Or is this a feature not yet available in the UK? [ducks]

you need to enable port 3689 in jag's personal firewall. Thats the port that iTunes shares music over.

Then thank sandman for his useful input.
