Hi, Steve, now, why didn't I think of this before? I didn't think of
left clicking on something before I could see the results, and in other
versions of winamp, I never had to do this, so thanks, and the results
were there, with 1000 stations, now for the next experiment, to try and
see if I get anymore than 1000 stations if I bump it up sicnificantly.
Once again, thanks, but as I said before, I never thought of doing
this, since I never had to do that with versions up to winamp 5.11.

Well, folks, I got the library search to work. What you need to do is
first click on AOL Radio or Shoutcast Radio, and a list of genres will
open up. Then you arrow down to the genre you want, then find the
station, and hit enter. You can then go back to Winamp's main window
and bookmark the station.
I think you can use the Jaws cursor to click on these things.

Hi, Steve, open up preferences with control p, and press the letter m,
repeatedly, until you hear winamp media library, then here's where
things get tricky, because you have to shift tab, and you should run
into a tab control, or property sheet, now, right arrow or control tab
over to on line media, and tab down to a button that says modify
preferences, and press the space bar, and then you should see the
number 600, which is the number of stations winamp will search for by
default, and you can change this to what ever number you wish, though
right now, the cap seems to be at 1000 stations, so you can set that
number, or what ever number you wish, tab to the close button, and
press the space bar, and then, the next time you launch the library
with alt l, it should search for stations, if it hasn't done so
already, funny thing is, with these settings set, my library will not
search, and hasn' t since winamp 5.11, and can't figure out why, and I
have told winamp not to install the winamp agent, the modern skin
support, and the winamp visualizations, and still, nothing, and even
these listers are stumped.
