no it doesn't

have a look at your hosts file. i think it's a safe bet that winmx.com has been redirected in there to somewhere else.
http://www.winmx.com/ shows this...
The
http://www.winmx.com web site is non-functional, for your winmx needs try:
http://www.MXPie.info but after the / add beta/ "www.winmx.com/beta/"
even the link to
http://www.winmx.com/beta/beta354.html is still there...
Why your being redirected i dont know, but its all there still...
here is the scource code.

<p><font face="Arial" size="2">Welcome to our beta testing program. Over the
coming months
many new and/or upgraded WinMX components will be introduced for initial
testing in this area of
http://www.WinMX.com. The eventual outcome of this testing will be a fully upgraded general release of
WinMX to replace the v3 series.</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" size="2">All users are welcome to participate in the beta testing program.
However, as with any software testing, you should be prepared for potential
problems that may arise. If you don't consider yourself to be an
experienced user, you may want to wait for the next full WinMX release.</font></p>

A new Library component replaces the Shared Files window. The new Library
allows for much greater user control over what files are being made available. Rebuilding
and refreshing is completely in the background on separate
threads. Video files are now scanned for bitrate, compression format,
frame size, etc.<br>

</font></u></b>
This version includes a very important upgrade to the core WPNP primary
connection protocol, and several key upgrades in the Search and Browse windows. With
the protocol upgrade it is hoped search coverage will be near-100%, which
will translate into vastly-improved search results, especially for rare
files. The protocol upgrade is also a preliminary step toward a persistent
hotlist (which will be in an upcoming test.)<br>

File downloads are sourced and managed by a completely new system in this
version. AFS/AEQ are gone, also file mismatches should no longer be a
problem. Minor WPNP file transfer protocol upgrades. Fragmented
file support added.<br>

and dont get me wrong, i dont pretend to know the awnsers, but i do know that since no one is willing to take the initive to make a new winmx true to its soul, i will stand in the spot of the one who would gather the tools to get the job done.
Pri is too stubbron, Richie is too untrustworthy, the rest are unwilling. so that leaves me thinking... Would it be better to just get programmers who dont use winmx to help make a new one? the main reason of this post was to find programmers, and get ideas from them and or any others on the subject of wether or not its possible. but i do know and agree with pri, it does need to be open source. other wiese, if the makers dissapear, we will all be left to

again...
