I've never had to open a torrent manually. Now there are some sites, for instance, empornium, that always asks what to do with the torrent file (run/save), but I don't open them manually.
As a matter of fact when I download something from suprnova, it simply asks me where to save it and it's off.
Back on subject....
I've had no problem getting on the site. I noticed it was down for about a day, but now that it's back up, it seems to be running great.
I've noticed better speeds after I fixed the "10 connections" crap that SP2 "fixed" for me. It was an inconvenience, but it's easily fixed.
In fact, I think there's a thread here that deals with it for those interested...
I'm a big fan of BT; so, I'm especially excited to hear about the new improved "BT." Thanks for the info, bendsley. I hope it doesn't qualify as violating the NDA....
