guys i was just wondering, if using BTguard can get me banned in some tracker ?
i will also welcome any other way of setting VPN for torrent client.
Tried tor (used for public tracker, testing purposes only) but its cuts away my speed drastically.

If you're using it to browse the site itself, yes.
If you're just using it for your client, it'll depend on the site in question, but in most cases this should be fine.

Do NOT use Tor for P2P. Seriously. Don't.Quote:

If you're using their VPN, most of the time trackers are OK with that, but I'd ask their staff first.Quote:

Why not just use a seedbox and a decent firewall or router
No shit
What did you originally want to use a VPN for?Quote:

I can no longer find any logic in that game.
i'm curios about the reasons why tor shouldn't be assosiated with bit-torrent (or vice-versa?), i'm not into privacy networks so just wanna know, for future maybe =)Quote:

Secondly, you put the exit nodes at risk by making them transfer P2P traffic in your behalf. The implications are similar to using your neighbor's Wi-Fi to download torrents.

You must have gone to the wrong places. There's a very nice thread by Rart in the Newsgroups section that explains the basics. :)Quote:
