why would you even use that crap when isohunt is way better...
It's working fine here Samfau2.
i also use isohunt, but i like to use both. Something must be up with my internet then. It's pretty wierd, pirate bay is the only website that isn't working. Everything else is fine. Any ideas??
Try getting into a private tracker :)
i rarely use bit torrent, i have a usenet account with astraweb that i do any real downloading but for the odd application or bit of music i sometimes use torrents, and also use some private trackers.
But its just annoying me that i can't access this one site and i have know idea why
I can access it as usual, so I guess it's a problem at your end.
You could do some diagnostics, maybe they help understand the problem...
try to ping and to traceroute piratebay if you want
launch command line interpreter (start, run, cmd, ok) and enter
ping thepiratebay.org
Packets are sent to the destination. If it is reachable, it should get them and send confirmations back.
You can see how fast this roundtrip was, or in case of problems, it just tells you that there was no answer back.
tracert thepiratebay.org
this sends packets with increased time-to-live step by step, so you can reconstruct what path your packets take.
with every higher ttl you are one hop further until an expiration message is returned
If there's a problem along the route, you might see that the trace silts up at that point.
Works here, thought i like BT Junkie for my public demands :P
Maybe you're banned:unsure:
:lol: that would be something new in this crazy crazy world.Quote:
