WinMX history

Ever since October 2005 when the owners of WinMX, Frontcode, shut down their servers WinMX has been in a state of limbo, with no programme of development for the aging client, time has stood still. Whilst we look forward to a talented coder stepping forward to create a new client for the WinMX network, we will for now, continue to assist users get the most out of their WinMx experience. This site supports the ongoing MXpie patch project, and its quest for a well protected and secure WinMX experience for all. Make no mistake the entertainment cartel took down the WinMX servers, the thriving and vibrant community put their own right back up, today there are a variety of users running connection caches offering improved reliability and security. Over the coming months plans are in place to further improve this situation, with new software, caches and upgrades to the patching system.

Check out our free WinMX guide in the WinMX section, or for further help or just a chat, visit the MXpie forum on the menu bar.

It is also highly important to note 2 factors:

- The Riaa and other greedy entities are paying specialist companies to flood our WinMX network with fake files, this not only causes inconvenience but can overload and crash connections, this is common across many p2p networks, however on WinMX, we are able to block these fools by using the official MXpie patch, or the patch offered by WinMX World
- There is a break away rogue pie team that are currently offering the 3.6pie patch, please note this patch does NOT offer you any protection against network flooding by the companies mentioned above. In addition to not keeping the network clean, their patch actually helps the Riaa and music cartels by allowing then to connect to the network and flood, please ensure you are only using the official WinMX Community patch.

Please note these are currently the ONLY offical MXpie community resources, please do not use any resource not mentioned above, you may well receive an inferior patch and end up un-wittingly assisting the Riaa to flood the network with fake files. Get connected and protected with the all NEW WinMX community patch written by Eagle, and recommended by MXpie.
