I have a quick unrelated question I was hoping you'd help me with. We have a 512kb DSL connection from Fast Telco in Kuwait, however, I have not been able to download torrents---specifically torrents. Limewire works fine, as well as other downloads, but torrents will not work whatsoever, regardless of client. When I open a torrent, it just doesn't download. It basically keeps "searching" for seeds as it appears. I tried opening my ports and changing my IP but nothing seems to work. I'm asking you because I know you have DSL connection, and you might know what to do. I sure as hell have tried everything i've got, and nothings been successful. Any thoughts?
