View Full Version : BitTorrent newbie?
Figured I give BT a try tonight only to be very disappointed. I got the client, I tried several search sites for torrnt files
The shit just sits there not even beginning to download. What torrent serever actually provide seeds that can be downloaded?

Also keep in mind that what you want is the MOST active download, not the least, because Bit Torrent lets you download from every person who is downloading if they have parts of the file that you don't.

somebody in this fourm hooked me up with limewire pro 4.8.1. No torrents needed. It works great and have got a ton of programs from it.
Remember to seed 2x's what you download to keep the torrent alive.
The elitetorrents site has reached its member limit. Anywhere else?
mili
Thank you for the pointers I use the client off bittorent.com
mili
Well if you wanna send me limewire pro I thank you for it. mili@dssftp.com
mili
This shit does nothing. Just sits there for hours nothing downloads. I got ports open and forwarded to my PC and still nothing, see the attached screenshot.
mili
What is this limewire stuff?
mili
Something is fucked on my end. Even though I opened the port for shareza it does not download one bit. Look at teh scree shot. Nothing moves.

A lot of the Gnuetella net software will give you false locations and file counts. I usually stick with.
overnet (aka edonkey)
kazaa lite resurection 0.0.7.f
limewire pro
these 3 have worked the best for me. In my personal experience a lot of them suck.
If you want any paticular one mili , let me know i have a large collection.
Thank you guys I think my ISP is filtering some ports as not one byte was downloaded from any of them sources. Thanks for the LWPro will try it.
mili
Not a byte downloading. I hate this shit.

Limewire is nice if torrents isn't working. But seems mili's not having any luck with either.

and try looking at hxxp://torrentreactor.net
It must be my ISP. Moved the port down and now it works. Fucking people blocking stuff.

Mili,
If you are running XP sp2 you will need to adjust your maximum concurrent connection from 10 to atleast 50 for most p2p software to work well.
here is the patch
Just relax JT it's not a virus ;)

fatalbits.org is a kick ass place for Movies that just came out in the theater within 1 day to 3 months ago , this weekend I downloaded Hostage , Hotel Rawanda,Millon Dollar Baby, Meet the Fockers , Alone in the Dark, Jacket, Seed of chucky, Be Cool, Flight of the phoenix and others Its a great site , you just have to sign up first , and you can only Download one at a time until you've been a meber for a few weeks or share ratio goesup or Donate of course ( which I have never done but am seriously considering it cause they have movies Before or within hours of there release in theaters, Good quality from the ones I've got so far and good download speeds to, By the way I use Azureus as my Bit torrent Client !
