    I think there's too much division between MPs to allow something like this for the time being.

    @raphjd: Anyone know how to put this in Vista x64? (Quote from ISOHUNT Forum - Posted: Wed Mar 19, 2008 7:15 pm) PG2 does work on Vista(x86) but not on Vista(x64) … I am running Vista(x64) so I don't use PG2. I just add the ipfilter.dat to µTorrent's settings folder. By typing this into the run dialog %AppData%\uTorrent. It will open the folder. Just rename the nipfilter.dat to ipfilter.dat and copy it into that folder.

    I don't know about the rest, but 1 of the Egyptian cables has had a temp repair with 60% capacity restored.  This is added on top of the one cable that wasn't cut. They are going to completely replace both the cut cables with the newest fiber optic cables.  According to various sites, the new cables will have 100 times more capacity than the old cables.

    In another article on this topic, the same police will still be after people who pirate stuff from the internet. Then again, does it surprise anyone that there are 2 set of laws, us and them?!

    It must be noted that Carphone Warehouse also owns Talk Talk and several smaller ISPs, as well as AOL UK and it's own brand {CPW} ISP.

    if They REALLY want to stop you and look for copyrighted materiel, at least here with Cox (ISP in the West-US) they can only do it if you install their internet suite.  so 1) why would you do that (and to all my fellow americans… stop pushing yes for the damn toolbars.)  2) encrypt your connection. 3)  if you get a note from your ISP check your system and see if you accidentally hit yes to some toolbar/gadget/handy internet device/evil system slowing toolbar/suite Just a thought

    I've been reading a large number of articles about P2P and various governments and I must say that Germany is the first EU country to tell the major industries to go screw themselves. Most other countries have been handing over whatever the music and record industries want and in many cases even allowing them to be a part of police raids. In most countries, this is normally illegal, but some how they manage to get in on the action.  It's also illegal in most countries for police and the gov to actively help in civil matters such as this. Think about it.  If you wanted to sue your neighbors for not returning your BBQ {outdoor cooking grill}, you will never get the police to raid their house and let you join in. Nor will the police/gov wiretap their phones and internet for you to help you with your civil case.

    I am former oink member and I am waiting for waffles and what.cd to open and get an invite. I just don't see how to get them in the first place. I joined oink when it first started and was a limited membership - I just waited for an opening and joined. I think the replacement sites are starting out invite only.

    "Mainline" is the official new name of the original BT client made by Bram Cohen. It does include many of the features found in uTorrent. At this time, there are no plans to merge the 2 clients {Mainline and uTorrent}. Mainline will be used by the Movie Industry as part of their attempt to get into the direct download market. So, YES, Mainline will report directly to the MPAA, at least while you are doing a "direct" download from a movie studio. Azureus also has a separate client "Vuze" that will be used by the movie industry, for the same reason as with Mainline. So, to recap; Avoid Mainline and Vuze, as if your life depended on it.
