desgnr Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I downloaded atorrent from the pirate bay It took 2 days 4 gig. When i went to open the Rar file it was incrypted & asked for a password. There was a password text file with a URL When i went there it said i dont have access to weiw the page. How am i going to unrar the files? I dont have the torrent i just opened it & it started downloading. How do i find out who uploaded it ?

Dark_Shroud Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Usually the password is the name of the file or tracker. Go back to the piratebay and fine the .torrent and read what it say on the page about the .torrent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kluelos Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 You've just encountered a slightly refined form of torrent spam. TPB comments will usually help you avoid these because others will comment that this is a passworded archive and shouldn't be downloaded. Many other forums ban this, and will delete both the upload and the uploader for doing so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 One way to find the password would be (assuming pirate bay didn't list it in the torrent post or comments) would be to visit the trackers web site, or do a search for the file name and/or torrent name in google. Concerning not being able to view the page you were referred to, most require you to register, as you did at this forum. Suspect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
