Anyone experience P2P getting slower in fact worst for the past weeks?

I have been experiencing downloading not exceeding 50 kbps and sometimes only 2 kbps for the past weeks.

Anyone?

Most important is u hope there many seeders for that torrent if not it will take u weeks to complete (if the file size is in gigabytes :biggrin:)

Same goes for other p2p like limewire, kazaa. More peers online will speed up your downloads. But if you're not sharing your files with others, they can 'block' you. :biggrin:

I usually download 20 at one time and normally there's 20 seeders, yes for gigabytes, it is nighmare.

I did share my downloaded files but the past weeks seems getting worst.

Do you encounter this problem like me so far?

Thanks!

There is a veritable frenzy over the next edition of the Windows operating system, as it appears that Microsoft has already shipped an early development milestone to key partners. With Windows 7 Milestone 1 Ultimate Build version 6.1 (Build 6519.1.x86fre.winmain.071220-1525) available outside of Redmond, many feel that it is just a matter of time before the next iteration of Windows will make it onto warez or torrent websites.

Windows 7 Milestone 1 for download, more or less referencing the official ISO served by Microsoft: 6519.1.071220-1525. Now, such piracy hotspots have long been the cradle of various Microsoft products, and not just copies of its software, but also product keys, hack techniques, cracks, key generators and so on and so forth. But accessing such alternative and illegal resources of Microsoft software is never a good idea. No matter how appealing the end prize might be!

Users racing to be among the first in the world to have a hands-on experience with Windows 7, however, are ready to throw aside common sense and ignore risks, be them legal or otherwise related to malware payloads tucked away in pirated materials. Windows 7 made no exception in this case. However, at this point in time, torrent downloads of Windows 7 are only masquerading as the operating system.

The ISO images available via BitTorrent trackers have proved to be nothing but fake zero byte ISO images. However, attackers could very easily leverage the strong incentive that is Windows 7 in social engineering schemes designed to let users turn themselves into victims and become infected with malicious code. Windows 7 M2 is expected to drop in April/May 2008, M3 in the third quarter. The Beta, RC and RTM versions of Windows 7 are planned for 2009. All it takes is a bit of patience. </td></tr></tbody></table>

I think download speed set to unlimited is correct... but for upload speed, you should set higher too.... In torrent downloading, it is all about sharing, so download speed is almost proportional to the upload speed.

xunlei is a good torrent download software. you can start more than 20 download at the same time... and it still move fast... But, you need to sacrifice your Internet surfing speed.

For new or old movie, i got another recommendation. Try Funshion. You can either download the movie or stream it online. Download the 1.2.x version. Don't download the later version as it is has its limitation.
