| 428770 | 2007-10-01 22:43:00 | Everbody who ever records something off TV is then breaking the law?? I never watch the adds while watching TV live or recorded. As I remember things........ Copyright infringement isnt necessarily breaking the law. I think you used to be able to legally record off the TV (to a vid recorder) in this country, but it still was copyright infringement. there USED to be a gray area here as it was broadcast free to air so the law didnt necessarily recognise/enforce full copyright on recording for later viewing. |

| 428771 | 2007-10-02 01:05:00 | I'm a new member of torrentleech and this is their answer on the subject: HOW TO - DRIVE DOWNLOADS PAST 99% when creating a torrent of files within a folder in Windows XP an extra file maybe added to your torrent called: thumbs.db this additional file may cause problems with peers getting stuck at 99%. The solution to this is to either delete this file prior to creating the torrent ~ or disableing the creation of it in the first place. Ive seen numerous queries regarding this on many different forums ~ usually ~ I'm stuck at 99% or When I try to reseed, my client tells me I only have 99% So heres the solution : Stop Windows from saving the thumbnail cache (THUMBS.DB) Intended For Windows XP only Windows XP, by default, shows the thumbnails view of certain folders, whether you want it to or not. Even if you choose Details (or some other view) as your default by going to Tools -> Folder Options -> View tab and click Apply to All Folders, Explorer may still revert back to the clumsy Thumbnails view. It does this for any folder in which it finds the THUMBS.DB file; naturally, if you delete this file, it won't happen again. The problem is that Windows seems to repeatedly recreate the THUMBS.DB file automatically. Here's how to stop this from happening: In Explorer, go to Tools -> Folder Options or open the Folder Options icon in the Control Panel. Choose the View tab, and tick the Do not cache thumbnails option. Click Ok. You can also change this setting in the Registry: Open the Registry Editor (regedit.exe). Navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced. Double-click the DisableThumbnailCache value, or go to Edit -> New -> DWORD value to create a new value by that name. Enter 1 for its value. Click Ok and close the Registry Editor when you're done; you'll have to log off and then log back on for this to take effect.. 9 times out of 10 a torrent that stops at 95+% is a fake put out by the MPAA. Open it up in VLC media player and see what happens. If it's real, it'll play the 99% that IS downloaded. If it's fake it will play static, or only audio. |

| 428773 | 2007-10-02 01:28:00 | .....My reason is not because I wish to pirate its because there's nothing to watch on tv I agree. I paid $60 a month to SkyTV & then had to wait up to 1 year before they showed the latest release of popular TV shows. |
