If we had any ideas, we 'd all have such a server. You see, shit like that costs money. And if I'm not mistaken, KH used an old computer of his own for that purpose.

Hehe, obviously having something that is free, fast and reliable is impossible... usually you have to pay for good performance...
Ok, if you have a great connection at home and a good PC.. maybe!

I think the people that may have cracked it... could be the ones that have been hosting those 700 MB clarkson DVD ripps...they seemed to have been up for ages...and surely most go through some serious bandwidth....

Ahh but I never said i didnt wanna pay did I?

I just dont see the point in paying sleekhosting £99 a month for Just 400mb of space.

BTW I am getting wrbb.net home power user package wehn it arrives in my area next year. £44 a month, gives you a max speed of 54mb/s, and a average of 20mb/s, but with a 66 000mb (66gb) cap. However this can be ilegally bypassed (the cap) so weel have to see.

BTW Jabba what is ur hosting company, and I am about to gain access to a 300mbit universcity ftp server, so if ur bandwith is being over used, u will be able to host the odd file there (illegally tho )
