Program often hangs (red icon, process must be killed manually), caused by network glitches?

Hi!
Long-term happy Soulseek user here. :-)

I have a recurring problem though, with my new installation of SoulseekQt on a wifi-connected WinXP PC and shared files on a NAS drive.

After some day the Soulseek tray icon always goes red and I can't really get it working. I then shut the program down, but it's still visible in the Task Manager and I have to kill it manually in order to restart it.

Can this be related to the PC losing contact with the wifi network and the shared files? Sometimes I notice that the PC has lost the connection for some minute, and I get the feeling that the Soulseek problem has appeared at those same occasions.

Btw, the tray icon never shows any tooltip when hovered, and nothing happens when right-clicked. This adds to the confusion... red icon, what does it mean, am I connected, what can I do, how can I try to connect, how can I shut it down, etc. Not even when everything works there is a tooltip or right-click menu. Surely there must be some good information to show in a tooltip and some good functions to reach by a right-click menu, just like in every other program? :-)

Thanks anyway for a great initiative, and take care!
