| cable one blocking TPB torrents?
Noticed that one of my friends is getting "Invalid Torrent File!" errors from thepiratebay.org torrents... any torrent frmo that site! Ive check and the same happens to me. However any torrent from any other site is downloading and working fine.
Can you guys confirm that youre having problems too? Please try downloading OpenOffice and Ubunto »thepiratebay.org/torrent/5109426···386_BETA and »thepiratebay.org/torrent/5109426···386_BETA Yet at other sites such as »www.mininova.org/tor/2580493 and »www.mininova.org/tor/3008217 its working fine.
If this a problem with TPB/uTorrent or is Cable one starting to mess with torrent files like »www.utorrent.com/forum/viewtopic···d=374884 |

| I've been having nothing but strange problems with TPB ever since they changed hosts; some comments pages don't work, some pages are corrupt, and sometimes I have to refresh the browser to make the page appear. TPB is also sloooooow to boot.
Right now, I'm blaming TPB themselves. It takes so long to load, no matter what time of the day I'm using it.
Typically, I get so frustrated with waiting times that I pull up ISOHunt and find what I'm looking for much, much faster.
My guess is that the TPB has let their servers get overloaded (I don't know much about their legal situations, mind you.)
At the moment, I'm doing everything I can to download a random torrent from TPB, but I keep getting the dreaded FF error:
"The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading."

I'm having the same Invalid Torrent File issues. All 'Bay pages are also loading slow, but they are loading. I'll try again a bit later.
Every other loaded torrent from any other site works fine. Odd.
Do they have an official or unofficial support forum, I wonder? I'm curious...
Hard to say if it's a 'Bay issue or something malicious.

Found the forums, duh.
'Bay issue: "Yea it's broken, we get it. If you people keep posting about it, it'll magically work again.
Downloading torrents is borked, captcha is borked, and site may still be a bit rough on the server side. No ETA on things being fixed." |
