Demonoid.com down?

**Aval0n** · January 3rd, 2007, 10:37 AM

Is it, or is it just me? No matter whether I access it directly or through a proxy[UAE isn't exaclty torrent friendly] I get the same page cannot be displayed error. Also I was seeding a torrent from demonoid and it says in the tracker status tab:

Host name cannot be found.

So can this be a bad sign that the site is down for good or just temporarily?:icon_scra

Okay scratch that they're back up :D

I am sure it was just a temporary glitch, happens to websites all the time.

Still getting an account for demonoid.com so I hope for the good and not an error about scripting and stuff.:icon_salu

Hello people: Don't use Demonoid.com! I signed up for and received my password, downloaded a movie and politely received an email from my ISP warning me of Copyright Infringment. Seems to me the torrent I chose was a dummy one created by the MPAA to track and catch downloaders. Just a warning. . .

?........first of all, how would your ISP know who you were connected to and what was being transferred?

2nd..use peer guardian, and the safe peer plugin.....

3 Use a more private and secure torrent tracker site than Demonoid, as it lists outside trackers cased from public trackers sites like TorrentSpy, etc......

You know, Soulxtc? Even though I stated in my first post that I downloaded the movie, I neglected to say that it didn't download completely and I ended up deleting the mess that did download. But then they wouldn't know that, would they? ;-).
