Default another one of those tracker problems

well i've been trying to download the videos via bittorrent for a long time now...and i always get errors with the tracker. even though some posts say the tracker is fixed...it never seemed to work. i downloaded the ABC bit torrent also, still doesnt work. the download turns "red" which i assume is another tracker problem. i then though, maybe i have to be a registered user to download, but it still doesnt seem to work for me ever...help anyone? please?

When the download turns red, it's not a problem. At least with ABC that is. WHen I open ABC and the torrent checks to see how much is completed, it then turns red for a bit. You should see the #connected increase as you connect to other people. After a coupla secs you should see that the download speed is increasing and the text will turn green. As far as connection problems, maybe Viper or someone can help out, I don't know much about it.

That's the problem right there. Your ISP has blocked it or something as I can connect to it right now.

Do a search for "hosts" I believe it is and you can manually tell Windows that that domain is XXX IP. Then it should work.
