GO TO TACOPRONTO.bbs.io From a network administration perspective, bittorrent is evil incarnate. A bittorrent client generates multiple connections which take a lot of bandwidth.That is a higher strain for networking equipment than just downloading a file from a website. I have seen bittorent clients bring down LAN segments because they overloaded the QoS queues of their upstream router. ISP hate torrent because ISP oversell more bandwidth than they have and a smallammount of torrenters places a lot of stress on them. And they don t care if you are sued or whatever because most likely you are going to have to hire an ISP anyway. -- gopher://gopher.richardfalken.com/1/richardfalken --- þ Synchronet þ Palantir BBS * palantirbbs.ddns.net * Pensacola, FL .
