Question of the Day: What is the ultimate French toast topping?
64k when capped is totaly useless!?!

Hey slim so how can i find some good proxyes...i think i should pay for it as well
Nothing is for free...but yeah anyway what i`m saying maybe for someone 64K is good but for me doesnt work the best way...even when i`m uncapped i have crappy speeds something slightly better than now... and sorry my mistake i mean HTTP not HTML
Nothing is for free...but yeah anyway what i`m saying maybe for someone 64K is good but for me doesnt work the best way...even when i`m uncapped i have crappy speeds something slightly better than now... and sorry my mistake i mean HTTP not HTMLthe best free proxies are those russian ones I posted about, they have a list of 100 000 active proxies but only choose 5 of the fastest every 3 hours so I find that 2 out of the fast can give 120KB/s at least and the others ussually can do like 40KB. But proxies are a bitch, you could set up your own private one on a server or buy private ones, or even VPN but if you're just gonna use it for say torrents you can't go wrong with torrentflux, reason being you just leech through http when you're done downloading to a server, nothing beats HTTP on iBurst
Ok i use the russian ones too as you give me the link last time...yeah i choose 1 of the 5...but the thing is that my emule doesnt want to move at all...with them...and the bittorent doesnt want to connect with them...
Yeah but what is better to use socks 4,5 or http proxys?whats faster?

socks or http proxies are dependant on the speed of the box they are on so one isnt faster than the other. You could band together with a few folks and get a server, even a cheap one then install a socks irewall and connect to that firewall, if it was a dedicated box with the socks firewall and thats all you wanted to run on it with a cheapo 100mbit server you could offer 120KB/s to about 100 people simultaneously, meanign it would cost each user $1 for the server cost (assuming the cheapo server is $100 a month).
That probably sounds good, BUT you need someone to front the cash and be able to still pay the bill if no one else pays (you know how people are sometimes), you ned people to split the cost with, you need a technical admin to run things (probably could get someone to offer thier services for free, just make sure they're not one of these idiots who thinks they can run a server because they have suse or mandrake at home) and lastly, and most importantly.... you need the socks firewall, which isn't open source so you're going to need to pay because as far as i know the now depreciated free version is nowhere to be found and thats not exactly something floating around the warez scene.
You can look into copycat proxies and free alternatives but more time will need to be spent with those, what I'm basically saying is it is totally feasable but its not a setup and run job, you'll have to at least be dedicated enough to run the server and keep track of who needs to pay and when. I say go for it. Oh and there are similar services out there already but you could tweak yours for iBurst users to make it more efficient. Of course peopel could always buy themselves VPN access for $10 a month with 10GB upload+download

on where a local system or remote server?
on local system you have azureus which has every feature you need plus tons of really good plugins and it can now support Torrents without the tracker, which keeps swarms open longer plus it can be pretty anonymous, it does use alot of resources though but i reccomend it
ABC is good, its a solid client and bittornado is based on the original and official client but beefed up a bit
on remote systems you can use ctorrent which is great but has one or two kinks and cant download stuff bigger than 4GB properly, the original bittorrent client which works great in shell or bittornado which works good in shell as well as through web interfaces, torrentflux has support for both the original client and bittornado

just a side thought but relevant to the topic, even if you're capped and seem to have no speeds - it would seem that you can play with torrents, as slimothy suggests, or load up dc++ and experiment by trying out the local IBurst User Hub at ibust.kicks-ass.net
I've seen speeds totalling 40-60KB between Iburst users, in single or multiple dloads/uploads..
