The latest in a series of attacks on the p2p networking underground has seen www.torrentspy.com (amongst others) come under fire. There are requests from the music/movie industry to log user details and visitation details including IP addresses.

Do they not get it? Torrent files != actual music/movie files!

When I use torrents it's always like 4KB/s. Could it be something to do with my ports? Is there a program I need?
I get 40KB/s on HTTP/FTP with my 384k Telkom. But P2P/torrents!

You need to forward your ports. Takes like 60 seconds to do..When I use torrents it's always like 4KB/s. Could it be something to do with my ports? Is there a program I need?
