Re: I noticed something interesting with torrent download

Out of curiosity, what are the differences in file size between the two sources? Also, the amount of seeders and leachers?

That's as may be -- but I don't think anybody here is buying that Shaw, through their network management, is somehow able to start another process to lock the file. The error message clearly suggests the problem is on your machine. If you suddenly lost all your open connections you might have reason to be suspicious, but "in use by another process"? Nope, just not buying it.

Further -- does a BT client even care much about the tracker once peers are connected? Does a peer obtained from Demonoid look different than a peer obtained from Obscure_Tracker_01?

Did you check the web search suggested by CogitoSum, above?

Perhaps I'll see if there's an upgrade to the client.

Funny thing though, I had 3 demonoids crash and burn today, yet my obscure site is happily trucking along..
