I have been hurting the last 2 days because of this.

 

Those of us that matter have accounts there.

We had a system problem which will force us to restore everything from backup.
The disks are pretty much empty right now and until we are able to upload the backup and set up everything up, we have to close down.

We.ll be back as soon as possible. Sorry for the inconvenience.

We were planning on returning online in the next few hours - probably tomorrow afternoon. But due some recent events, and following the advice of a lot of you, we will make a few more changes that might take a few days longer. As always, thanks for you continued support and patience. For the ones wondering, the timing of the downtime was coincidental.

 

"It is a form of P2P (peer-to-peer)file sharing. You install a download manager which then you go find a .torrent file, then you downloadthe filefrom certain trackers (demonoid is apparently a tracker). As you download the files you are also required to 'seed' or contribute to the masses downloading it as well. So as more and more people download the files, more and more people are also 'hosting' the file for download. Essentially you just install the dl manager, go find the file you want through websites (trackers) and download, and the manager does the rest. "

"Most torrent software has a built in browser to allow for searching files in the application."
