Thanks,

I will try that out. As I am using ADSL, I don't have that much outgoing speed (128k); is that a problem ?

Cheers,

That shouldn't be a problem. Bittorrent downloads the file pieces from different places, so slow connection with you won't prevent downloading other parts in the same time. Sure, the download will be faster for you. Consider leaving bittorrent running until it uploads as much data as it has downloaded.
