    hiya peeps,

    i got one of those letters from my service provider a couple of months ago because i was downloading torrents and using things like ares to share music. it basicly said that if i use it anymore my details will be passed on and i'll get shafted lol

    i was just wondering if theres any way around this now? or am i gonna have to deal with it, start going to the sites where you have to pay and say goodbye to being able to use azurus.

    thanks

    You can try to use rapidshare and amozon website etc paying websites like that the other thing you can do if you are using Windows XP you can use a freeware program called peer guardian that help block and filter I.P addresses.

    Your provide won't fine you, they'll cut off your service and forward the information to whoever singled you out in the first place.

    that would be the bpi then, ive checked the list and they are on there to be blocked by peerguardian, so do you think i would be safe in using it

    Nothing is 100%, use at your own risk.

    Azureus uses it's own peer blocking filters.. peerguardian doesn't work with it.
