      The 10 connections hack thing is also built into XP-Antispy btw... (It's actually lvlord's code it uses)

      note also you should check this again after any Windows updates (they can often reset this back to 10).

      But make sure you change the settings in uTorrent so it utilises those extra half-open connections!

      Well - I tried for 4 hours last night - I am on connect - and I can't get it to work.

      Does anyone else here have any ideas? Or had any luck with this whilst on connect (maybe it was just me and my bad skillz ;/ ?)
