find your hosts file (C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc), and open with notepad and add these lines.

38.115.131.131 sk2.slsk.org
38.115.131.131 www.slsk.org
38.115.131.131 mail.slsk.org
38.115.131.131 server.slsk.org

Um, soulseek's website is www.slsknet.org. That www.slsk.org site is bogus.

Why didn't I have to do this when I downloaded Soulseek recently? When I downloaded it on my old comp a few months back I had too. But when I downloaded it the other week on this new machine it worked fine right away.

Not that it matters or anything, I am just curious here.

there has been an update I think that edits the hosts file on install.

Yeah, probably what he said. There have been like 2 updates since soulseek first started getting attention on tpww.
