Haven't tried, but I read yesterday that The Pirate Bay has been closed down.

TPB trackers are all over the place.
They'll be back on their feet in no time at all.

http is open to TPB and Demonoid, but udp appears blocked or borked.

Glasnost says "There's no indication that your ISP rate limits your BitTorrent uploads."

She might like Religulous.

So The Pirate Bay has been shut down?

Mininova is still my local.

Nah Steve, I was just honking along at 500kb/s.
I'll give another torrent a go.

EDIT: Must be you, brosef. Everything's fine for me.

A couple of weeks back I was having lots of problems with torrents (so I switched to using rapidshare user sites). Turns out I was being routed through the asian side of the pacific ring and somewhere there things were either being actively or accidentally blocked to TPB and Demonoid. Seeing as this is happening to you guys, I'd say it's happening on purpose.

Someone in Asia is purposely blocking shit. The only fix is routing around them - which isn't up to you.

If anyone wants to start using rapidshare sites I've found the RDown addon for Firefox unbelievably good, although you have to edit a line of javascript because there's a bug in the addon. If anyone wants to know about it let me know.
