i notice that a lot of people on vm connections cant connect to WoW - a lot of unhappy elves and dwarfs moaning about it.

Re: problems getting to certain sites today?

Hmmm.. I was having time out probs getting to a forum yesterday. Dumping OpenDNS solved the issue for me?

Googlemail was a bit slow to load today but seems OK after the second attempt.

I haven't had any of those 'can't find the page' issues since dumping opendns but its early days to form any opinions about that.

I'm still having problems getting to http://www.bytemark.co.uk/ or any of the other services that Bytemark host.

edit: these seem to have fixed themselves in the past minute or so!

make the most of it. i imagine that use of private sites might be a distant memory once the letters from the BPI/Virgin get mobilized.

Other way around. Only bit torrent downloading from private sites will be possible. the open sites are the ones BPI will be using to trap you. those then caught by the open sites will get the BPI letter.

the downloading letters are allready going out to those who are randomly selected for continuely hitting the download limits and are under the New stm.

i am the proud owner of one of those letters. its the letters from the BPI that i am more concerned with and who's to say they cannot join private trackers and observe all the clients in the swarm? the MPAA do so so i imagine that the BPI will follow suit.
