BitTorrent tracker site praises the benefits of increased security offered by a Canadian ISP, says the "site is even safer" than it was with Sweden's PRQ.
It's been oddly fascinating to watch the fallout of OiNK, once the world's greatest illegal file-sharing music store, continue to make waves in the BitTorrent community.
Following it's much publicized closure by Dutch and UK police, sites like What.

Ironic that Canada is supposedly more secure, after what happened to Demonoid.

The past days I get this message on what.cd >>>
Changing Servers, yay
Be back in about 1~2 hours :)
Tried opera, firefox and ie, made no difference.
Anyone else have the same problem?
Is it related to the move?
Did they change their adres or something?

Yes I have as well, I have been going crazy trying to figure out why the site still has that message.

Actually I just figured it out. I had at one point edited a file by the name of "hosts" in the WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc directory. I had IP resolutions for what.cd and tracker.what.cd in there. Removed those entries and everything seems to be working fine now.. DOH! LOL

When will they stop with the 'store' talk, they weren't selling anything, jeebus :|
Odd they moved to canada though, I would not want to host a torrent site there...

I don't think this will be a good long-term move for what.

and if it turns out that it does work out, how stupid do all the sheep at the subdemon forums look then? i hope that it does work out for them there just so those who refuse to move on look like the foolish hangers on that they all are.
