Change your port and make sure you download legal stuff  | |

Interesting, I wondered about that. I'm on RoadRunner, and I noticed over the past couple months, when I would launch BitComet, after about 10 min or so, my internet connection would completely shut down. I would have to repair it to get things running again. | |

Not sure what you can do about it, some of the workarounds I've read about seem like too much trouble.
There's a patch for Windows XP SP2 that will bump up your maximum simltaneous connections from the default of 10 all the way up to 50. May help a little bit... http://www.lvllord.de/ | |

Tryed that, but seems like they have caught.. so changing PORT #'s/ using encryption isn't helping. I guess that is the dimise of Bittorent. What i may now need to do is subscribe to a newsgroup. Do I really have any other way of getting files??? | |
