There are some stories running around that my ISP (Rogers) will throttle your connection considerably if they see you're downloading torrents.
I learned this from my friend who claims his connection slowed down considerably after downloading quite a few torrents.
I'm worried, because I remember before when I had Bit Comet, the internet was slowed down a lot only when it was downloading a torrent.
Right now, I have a program called Free Download Manager, and it's freaking awesome! I'm downloading the Skullptura rip of GTA4 (3.4 GB, this guy's a genius) at 700-900 kb/s with 0 seeders and 150 leechers (Bit Comet would probably download this at only like 150 kb/s tops.)
Anyway, did anyone else hear stories about ISPs doing this? Should I worry?
