Weird huh? Companies who provide bandwidth finding out that people will fill that bandwidth? Outrageous.
Whats outrageous is the fact that said company is only protecting the network from VERY FEW people who are using the protocol enough to cause the problem in the first place. I can tell you I don't have problems with BitTorrent, but I'm using Azereus (misspelled)... I download lots of stuff, and I don't have any issues with completing the download... I think the issue is coming from the folks who host the file, and have 150 people hit them at the same time for the file, then the UBR rejects it by sending an RST packet. That makes sense, because BitTorrent is not bandwidth friendly, so on a 384k upstream, that would suck the life out of your connection.

No one has issues with downloading. Its the upload they are blocking. And while people like yourself think that is fine, since you can still download, I'll remind you that without people uploading, no one can download.
