Orange Broadband Blocks Torrents?

That's ace, thanks for all your help guys, i've got it working with a combo of everything. Although i forgot how wicked slow this is, might look into subbing to a newsgroup, hmmmm

Thanks again!

I would switch over to Utorrent and as long as your ports are forwarded correctly, you should not have any problems. I have a some tweaked settings for Utorrent if you need help just shoot me a pm and I will forward them to ya.

Glad you're sorted, as for your speed, are you using public or private torrent sites?

[webgirly]

Ah! Is that likely to work better than bitlord?

I'm using public torrents, I'd never know where to find the private ones.. iso hunt, that sort of thing

That would be ace! i'll go over and download that tonight

Private sites are the way to go, stick around on here and I guarantee you'll get invited quite soon, think I've got a spare TL(fastest site on the net some say) invite lying around.

ps, you can get into the invite section once you've been here a month, well worth waiting for.

Cheers!

I may run them by you first to see if they have any negative affect on trackers, by over announcing or anything like that. I will send them your way in PM and let me know if you see anything that would bog sites down. I doubt it, but you guys may know something I don't.

I've actually started on the whole newgroups thing, since i've heard such good things about it.. but i think i've gone and signed up with a rubbish provider since I can't find much there, and stuff i've tried to access from binsearch won't download, (don't think i can add the server). I've signed up with thundernews.com

i had wanted to sign with newsggroups but they don't take uk debit cards and they cant accept paypal anymore. that's basically why i went with thundernews as it could take my payment.... so far, have found nothing good tho. is the co you choose to sign up with that critical or am i just doing this wrong?

Best to ask in the Newsgroups section.
