Who cares if the Cayenne looks horrible, it can do things other "SUV"s can only dream of doing...instead, they'll get stuck "going across a croquet lawn". images/smilies/lol.gif

The video or the ZIP? There may be an issue with WinZip not liking such long filenames (especially if you're on like Windows 95 or 98). And yes, I've gone to much shorter filenames. images/smilies/wink.gif

Can someone help me finish my download? I'm at 83.1% and had to restart my modem when it froze. By the time I was back online there were no seeders around.

I do realise you guys can't seed all day long and I do appreciate being able to get the other episodes.

There are two seeds right now. You just have to wait a while until you completely connect to other computers.

And if you're firewalled (it'll show yellow), that makes you be able to connect to a lot less people and makes your download slower. So, if you can, make sure you aren't firewalled and have the ports forwarded if you have a router.

Cheers fellas,

I'm downloading again (92.5% completed).
I am firewalled here, which would explain the slooow speeds, oh well it is worth it. Thanks again.

Seeding, problem is that everyone that is connected is firewalled and so they can't connect to each other.

I'll ask one of my unfirewalled seeders to get on as I'm firewalled as well (and I can't bypass it).

As for you, work on bypassing your firewall. It'll make life eaiser BT wise. images/smilies/wink.gif
