Hi all, I tried to download AID v2.11 using SimpleBT, and the torrent file found at [url]h**p://www.mininova.org/tor/85281[/url]. It didn't do anything, except all the folders etc were there, but with no content
also the folders and files all had the correct filesizes, but as i said, no content. When I tried using Azureus, it simply would not connect to anything. Any suggestions? thanks,

I just finished getting it yesterday with regular old bit torrent. It took about 2 minutes for it to actually START downloading anything so you might want to give it a few.

Check your firewall, it may be blocking connectivity. Also check your router to see if it's allowing the torrent to get to your computer. _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th

Yeah sometime switching clients fixes a particular problem (probably due to default settings or something)
Just my two cents. BitComet, out of the three or four clients I've used is the best and most user friendly. _________________ xbox v1.4

Yeah, I prefer ABC. Make sure that Windows Firewall is off so you get better d/l speeds.

Just one more thing, when i download torrents, it u/loads and d/loads while its actually d/ling the torrent, which is good (i think?) but my share ratio never leaves 0.0%, even if I select 'seed indefinitely'? Then it warns me of this when i go to delete the torrent. Any suggestion?
Thanks _________________
