Yeah, some sort of flu or something. I'm also suffering of the 60+ Naruto curse. Thankfully, I could catch up with the releases, so I'll do my best to download other groups' releases as soon as they become avaliable, since they happen to download at normal speeds even having only 10% the users of the ANBU-AonE releases (that take a whole week to download).

For anyone still having problems, and aren't willing to move onto other group's torrents, Sharezaa ('http://www.shareaza.com') can be of help.

No, it won't solve the mysterious "can't download from ANYONE" or the "it remains at zero for HOURS" problems that seems to be plaguing some users who try to use the gotwoot tracker, but it will search and download using alternative doorways (using the Gnutella2 network to find people who are using Sharezaa and dowloading/seeding the same torrent).

Right now it hasn't downloaded a single byte from other BitTorrent users, but my download is now running normally due to the Shrazeaa extra sources.



Ah, if you have a partial download with another BT client and want to move it over Sharezaa (I had 60% of Naruto 62 and NO desire to re-download 6 days worth of downloads all over again), here a quick trick:

- Download BNBT ('http://bnbt.go-dedicated.com/') (it's a BitTorrent tracker)

- Unzip it to a folder and run it. Now you'll have a tracker running in your computer (test it by accessing your own comptuer at port 6969 in your browser).

- Download and install MakeTorrent 2.0 ('http://krypt.dyndns.org:81/torrent/maketorrent/')

- Copy your .torrent file somewhere else, and open the copy with MakeTorrent.

- Change the tracker URL to your own computer at port 6969 (i.e: http://localhost:9696/announce) ('http://localhost:9696/announce)') and save the torrent file

- Open the modified .torrent file with your old BitTorrent client (NOT Sharezaa), let it connect. It won't find any peers, obivously.

- Now open the same .torrent file in Sharezaa, and wait a bit. Soon it'll start downloading at insane speeds (it's downloading from your other BT client). Once it finishes downloading the partial file (speeds goes to zero), right click it, select "advanced" (you need to turn Sharezaa into advanced mode to do this), and click "Torrent Info".

- Now change the tracker URL to the original tracker URL, press OK and wait a few seconds. Soon it'll switch the tracker and start downloading properly.

- Keep right-clicking the file in the transfer window and selecting "find more sources". Make sure it's connected to many Gnutella2 servers, so it'll have more chances of findind non-BT sources.

mwhahaha... Shareaza was a program i suggested ages ago Here ('http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=3948'). I'm glad someone else other than me seems to be using it http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/happy.gif

Wow, that's some pretty advanced tips on moving the files over to Shareaza o_O;
Well done man http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/happy.gif
