hey everybody listen up ares is a smart p2p , you have to configure you setting from CP,

1. disable firewall
2.disable any antivirus software on your pc.
3.make restart
4.make uninstall for ares

thanx for caring !

Hey I have the same problems as everyone else. It only ever says "connecting". The only firewall on my computer is Norton, and norton actually asks me if i will i want to allow ares to connect to the net, and of course i accept and allow it to connect. But still it doesnt connect ! What other firewall could there be stopping this. Please Reply. Thx J O

I posted the same reply at yahoo, lemme know if i am right.
Okay, i am into IT, and this sounds reaaalllly stupid when i say this, but this kept happening to me and i could not really figure out why. it kept searching forever when i typed anything to search. I reinstalled ares, restarted windows, cleared out the temp and cache but no luck, when i checked my status at the top, it was still "connecting", although my i was able to browse just fine through IE. The funny thing was, every time i reinstalled ares, the moment it launched i started making changes into it such as my nick name, or the port number it uses for the transfer of data,because the ISPs usually block the common ports which might be utilized for P2P sharing (whether cable or DSL), so u hafta keep changing the port number. The last time when i had it to work was when i downloaded a fresh copy of ares setup (20 minutes ago), installed it, waited for it to self execute and then waited for it to connect without making any sudden changes as i mentioned above, and viola!! it connected and right now i am typing this so that you people can try and confirm if this really was the solution. (I still feel stupid though coz technically this does not make any sense other than the ares software having a bug which is caused by making changes suddenly when it has launched for the first time). peace.
