Try Vuze or uTorrent with forced RC4 encryption and Lazy Bitfield enabled. Might help, might not.

Guys

I think that it is appropriate to say that the storm clouds are gathering on both sides of the Atlantic:

thanks for another interesting article, ukbobby. Yes, it does sound like these lawyers are just opportunistic @$$holes who are just trying to shakedown people who can't afford to pay. It sounds to me like extortion, and hopefully the ACLU will be able to do something, although these days, they seem to be stretched a little thin.

Anyway, yes, Vuze does seem to work very well for torrents after over a week of using it. I've had torrents stop for a day or so, but it's probably because of limited seeds, and they usually come back eventually. I still maintain that it's no faster than Limewire, but the connection seems much better. I haven't tried utorrents. If anybody has any comments on that, they'd be welcome.

Thanks, everyone

I saw this story yesterday were BT and TalkTalk (another British telecom company) are challenging the "Digital Economy Act", which was passed in the UK during the pre-election period.

I know these companies are acting in their own self interest, they fear loosing their customer base to other smaller telecom companies, but hopefully the BPI will loose their new found policing powers.
