Hosting Room With WinMX, Doesn't Show In List For Me

Usually this problem is something only users behind a router will have, the room name may even show with what we call the 'loop back' address in the list.  You can tell it's the loopback address (an address assigned by your machine) because of all of the 000s in it as in the image below.



This will also show for hosts in the Chat List when using WinMX to host.  The good news is that for all other users the room list will look normal.  Just don't expect by giving this roomname to anyone they can enter with it.  Its for your local machine only.
