Re: Why Is OOL Selectively Blocking Bit Torrent Pa

Hmmm...
I'm not sure yet, but in recent days I have being getting errors while uploading with emule. People seem to connect and after a few seconds, bang!...they're gone with error 10053 and I'm not running a firewall in the PC.

Ya. An error 10053 is "Connection is aborted due to timeout or other failure." Looks like OOL's doing something similar with the EMule as they are to BT. They're also doing something to block WinMX connections too, I think.

Maybe it's time for me to re-consider my hatred for Verizon and go crawling back to them when Fiber gets implemented
