    I've recently changed to Grokster from Morpheus on the recommendation of a few posters, but many times I get nothing back when I do simple searches. Is anyone else having this problem??

    Nah, it works like a champ for me. Are you sharing any files? Seems like Morpheus and Grokster ran much slower for me when I didn't share anything...

    Pimp, it was happening to me for the first time yesterday. I was talking to some freinds who have Kazaa and they said the same thing was happening to them yesterday as well. It is/was probably a network thing. I have had Grokster for almost 2 weeks now and yesterday was the first trouble I've had. Try disconnecting and re-connecting. It worked much better after I re-connected.

    Grokster has worked better for me than all the other sharing programs. Someone posted in another thread how to get rid of the spyware, which I did, and I'm quite happy with it. Only problem is I'm going to have to get another 120 GB hard drive because it works too well.

    Tell me about it. I have an 80gb and a 40gb that I am filling up fast. I have also burned about 5 or 6 movies to disc (700mb disc).

    Strange, I can get search results(for mp3's) when I do a search for "Everything", but nothing when I search for "Audio" files.

    Kinda like walking into a store hoping to lift some merchandise, then looking over and seeing a security guard giving you the eye.

    Grokster still keeps crashing after about 20 seconds.

    Here's what I get:

    GROKSTER caused an invalid page fault in

    No idea what that means fade. Try what Wink said, uninstall it and re-install.
