If Soulseek stills crashs, freezes or cant connect, there can be several reasons for this:

One of your cfg file is corrupted or too old to be upgraded : Go to the folder where Soulseek is installed (Default is C:Program FilesSoulseek), make a copy of all the .cfg files somewhere else for backup purpose.
