An Excerpt From: Torrent Freak

   (Stay up to date with critical p2p news)

Written by J.J. King on July 10, 2008 

This May we already posted about the leaked ACTA proposal, and it now seems that the final agreement will be ready sooner than we had hoped. Fresh out of the G8 meetings ‘Declaration on the World Economy‘, passages under the heading ‘Protection of Intellectual Property Rights’ suggest member states want the international anti-piracy agreement ready for implementation sooner than some expected, as it reads:

We encourage the acceleration of negotiations to ......

 Eset NOD 32 Smart Security FIREWALL

While running the NOD 32 Smart Security Bundle, there were often issues. Two majour problems were 1) Slow Torrents and 2) Slow Browsing.

1) Torrents would often slow down to a crawl, stop, restart, and linger among other connection problems. On the eset smartsecurity firewall, the automatic setting does not work with torrent utilities in general, because it limits an application to only one outgoing connection, when torrent applications need many outgoing connections. See below for explanation and a fix.

 Slow Torrents With Windows XP sp2

 Windows xp sp2 limits your TCP connection to a maximum of 10 which really boggs down your torrent speeds. Here is some information from a guide I located that explains how to get rid of that TCP connection limit and speed those torrents back up.

Excerpt from "Speed up your torrents"

Hack the max TCP connections

If you’re on XP sp2, your TCP connections are limited to a maximum of 10. This seriously hurts your downloading speed because it wont let you connect to a high amount of ip numbers. It is supposed to slow down viruses because their spreading strategy is to connect to a high amount of ip numbers, but it also cripples your torrent downloads.
A nice way to fix this is to download this patch, it allows you to set the maximum allowed connections to any number you want. Any number between 50 and 100 is ok (more on this).

 In the newspaper today I came across a column. 

 CALL OF DUTY

As the apple 3Giphone is introduced to canada, praise turned into anger. Stemed from the rogers rate plans for the 3G iphone which consumers feel is unfair when compared to more feature packed and inexpensive US rate plans. 

The majority of voiced concern has been on a website "www.ruinediphone.com" which has collected more than 35,000 signatures on a petition asking Rogers to bring it;s iPhone plans in line with those offered to United States Customers. With a goal of hundreds of thousands of signatures to be placed on the petition, raging fans continue to voice their distaste for the monopoly inspired actions of Rogers, given it's exclusive access of the Apple 3G iPhone.  Rogers defends their subsidized price saying it's lower than any rogers has ever offered. But we all know that canadian mobile companies have enjoyed a limited competition market......

I like to keep up with laws, court cases, and all things happening, which relate to the file sharing/Peer to Peer world. I stumbled upon this website, unfortunately I have never even heard of before! An amazing p2p resource p2pnet.com is updated daily and loaded with information.  File sharing, Courtcases involving the RIAA and MPAA (every single courtcase), With news   relating to movies, music, tv media, mobile, advertising, open source, p2p, freedom, politics, interviews, security, drm, consoles.... Even information on file sharing applications ie:frostwire, etc.

If any site could boast to be THE p2p resource, this one pulled it off. By far the superior p2p resource on the world wide web. Keep yourself informed about events which affect file sharing. But don't take my word for it! Try it for yourself !

See my links on the bottom right side of my page, it is the top link.

1. Do your Research !

Find out the policies and reputation of your isp (google it). For example verizon has an excellent privacy policy and motto vs comcast which has been the cause of many isp warnings. 

2. Encrypt your Connection

The majority of torrent applications have built in encryption ability. See this link to find out how to encrypt your torrents for the majour torrent utilities. "http://torrentfreak.com/how-to-encrypt-bittorrent-traffic/"

3.Download peer guardian.

Peer Guardian is designed by pheonix labs, it blacklists isps of known anti p2p persons, agents, companie, etc. It's in no way fullproof but it's in good hands and a great preventative step. See this link: "http://phoenixlabs.org/pg2/"

4.  Proxy your IP!

Enlist the services of a good, high quality proxy. One that I have located with many varous plans to meet any budget and only the finest......

Hello Everyone :D

My names John Stanton Rice. I have been an avid p2p user since birth. My goal is to become one of the top 10 uploaders. I like to keep an eye on top movies and new releases, I seed all I download whenever possible for maximum points per day & I am on 24/7. I have only recently became a bitcomet user, but already I have done my research and obtain 200-350 KB's Download speeds. Axxo is THE name for good quality movies with impressive compression. I think we as p2p users need to keep watch on changing laws, and the way they will affect our ability to share. We must stand up for what we beleive in or we will lose it. Don't sit around and do nothing while laws are created which prohibit file sharing. Be a Community.I will fill out more on my profile when I have time. 

Thanks and God Bless :D
