I tried logging in until the server accepted it.  Before, it would say that 
my name was already on the server or that the password was incorrect.  I just 
used different names and passwords, checking the New Account box, until 
finally I got connected!  So, now I can use gnapster now.  I did use "connect 
to official server" (or something like that) from the file menu and got 
connected.  

P.S.  I did find limewire (www.limewire.com - duh!  why didn't I try that).  
I am downloading it now.  I will check it out if gnapster (or the napster 
hosts) kicks me off like before.
