im trying to dl a movie from isohunt using shadows. im getting great speeds ( 145 kb/s) but my cpu usage goes up to 100%. in the client the numers arnt changing (speed ,% finished, elapsed time, etc) so I dont even think its dling. my interent works so its not that. if I restart shadows it will work but then get messed up again after a little while. I used shadows for this dl cause on some trackers azureus cuts off my internet and I gotta reboot + replug my modem. please help!
i think it the torrent cause it also happened with abc. so is there a way to fix it?
restart ur pc, should do the trick
Try going to
Prefs > Advance > Change "Max Peer Connections" to 60 then press save...
see how that works.
ill try the 60 peer thing. also reboot wont fix it.
it didnt freeze but now it cut off my internet connection (cable) after a while! this happens with some trackers and torrents. any1 know why?
download python and wxpython then download the abc sourcecode and run it from
python, maybe this will help since the sourcecode doesnt need fancy reg. keys
anyways trying is 4 free, hope it works for ya, cuz I know how anoying these things
can be
what is python and wxpython and what do they do? do i need both or just 1? lastly is the abc sourcecode on their site?
Ask your ISP about where you need to upgrade your cablemodem with drivers/network drivers to prevent crashes when cablemodem is under a heavy load.Quote:

You only need to say when you are downloading (and/or uploading) really fast, not how or what you're downloading/uploading. They don't need to know THOSE details. :lol:
u mean i gotta buy stuff so it wont crash? r u sure cause i dont wanna buy stuff and it still wont work!
No, this stuff SHOULD be free -- otherwise your ISP is into false advertising for claiming a 'speed' that it simply cannot deliver without crashes.Quote:

Drivers and updates are FILES you download to make the connection faster, not something you buy.
so i need to call em up and ask what dirver/networks drivers do i need to upgrade my modem so it wont crash when dling at heavy loads?
YES!Quote:

Also, having computer viruses and/or spyware on your system (or even LOTS of programs that load on windows start-up) can crash your system while under heavy load.
Ad Aware and/or SPybot can get rid of spyware.
Take your pick for anti-virus software, but use something that's updated at least once every 2 weeks!
got shadow on 2 pcs no problems clean and fast + i got a firewall which works ok
i called up isp and all they said is go to the modem site and dl the the latest driver they have for my modem. here is the link to the dl:
