Have to agree to disagree.. Like I said earlier, I have been with virgin for 3 months. I noticed this when everytime I opened Vuze. In the task bar at the bottom, a yellow x would appear and I would lose connection to my seeds. Then it would re connect for about a minute or so and then do the same again. I watched this for an hour or so then shut down my PC. I used internet without Vuze for half an hour and nothing, it was fine so I opened Vuze again and it started all over again. I phoned Virgin and told them my connection kept dropping and they asked me if I was using P2P software because if I was, it would keep doing this as Virgin is trying to crack down. All I know is that with me, it woun't let me use P2P. If I leave it overnight, it will probably finish or be close by but lets be honest, a 700mb file should be done in an hour max..
