Is demonoid dead??

#16620455 - 07/31/12 04:20 AM (14 years, 2 months ago)

I have not been able to get onto their page for the last few days now. I don't remember reading anything about them getting shut down in recent news. Is anyone else having any trouble with their home page?

this pisses me off, I was gonna make a thread about this too to see if it was just me.... it's the only torrent site I use since this huge gov't crackdown... way too paranoid to use the other sites anymore. Insert tin foil hat smiley face here...

How does a website give you viruses? It was something you downloaded, and later installed, not the website. Demonoid is very, very secure, private and frankly the best IMO. I mean I'm not a fucking virus or computer expert, I just thought that's how viruses worked. Can you get them just from visiting a site?

you can use peer guardian but it is not a fail safe.

A virtual private network (VPN) is pretty much the safest, you can get on one for about $10 a month.

my best bit of advice, would be to have you know that its not usually downloading that will get you a copyright infringement notice, it is uploading. IIRC, They need to see information coming out of your computer, not going in. There is a program called Bitthief, it is a torrent client, like utorrent, except it goes against the most basic dynamics of file sharing. You do not upload any content whatsoever. In reality, this makes you a scumfuck for taking and not giving back, but these are sketchy times and i have had contstant trouble with btguard and peerguardian, My ISP throttled my connection, so i switched up and had to rethink my practices.

If you dont get bitthief, you can do a little tweaking on utorrent. It will not let you set your upload limit to nothing, but you can go to preferences and set your global upload rate to "1", it will probably already be set to "0", don't let that confuse you, "0" means unlimited, so 1 is actually the lowest setting.

Dunno bro. I'm not a computer wizard but I kept getting a similar virus. Over time, I realized it would appear close in time to visiting demonoid. It was a really nasty one too. Just to show I'm not delusional, this dude had the same problem. http://213.155.27.24/forums/lofiversion/index.php/t146695.html

thanks! yeah i use peer guardian but i'd like to be more secure. i'll look into vpn and bitthief.

i hope demonoid comes back. imo i think it's the best torrent site out there.

I use it since I can find just about everything there and it's a hair more secure than TPB.
Also getting an invite is easy as fuck, so that really doesn't matter.

Man i'm sick of seeing the same demonoid threads, atleast search it or check on the second or third page, i've seen the same thread 3/4 times in the last day or something.

Also if anybody needs a code pm me and i'll send you one once it gets back up :smile:

Yeah, besides, if you search "is demonoid down" it is the first thing(okay maybe second) that pops up on google.

You can get a virus from a webpage containing malicious JavaScript code that runs automatically when you visit the page. JavaScript is full of exploits. The one and only virus I ever got was this way.

I don't d/l porn as there is no need and you are just asking for viruses IMO. Demonoid has everything but porn, I get all my movies, books and audio books there, as well as most music, though Soulseek is good for tunes too.

Basically Demonoid's the best torrent site, I have several adblocker type add-ons so I don't even get pop-ups on there anymore, better freakin' come back online, I needs mah d/ls!!
