Does your "S" not work on your keyboard?

I think hiz "S" workz. Anywayz, you probably want to try connecting to port 80 cauze thatz uzually an open port. If that doeznt work, you are going to have to uze tunneling.

Also, if your college just sends you letters when you use bittorent, it is because they moniter they default ports (haha i forgot what they were somewhere around 8850-8890 or something like that). Try connecting to some random ports like 4000-4020. This keeps them off my back.

Also, if they have "punish" you by remotely disconnecting your access to their network, I know how to bypass that.

Thanx...I know with some programz thatz been whatz happening...They get shut off tha network...Unfortunately bittorrentz won't run...I'll try thoze portz this weekend...thanx again
