On my home machine, I just clicked on a torrent file from my browser and the process started. Using this command line method, I did get a window to open but the result was: error(s):[15:53:57] Tracker announce still not complete 59 seconds after starting it | | [15:54:57] Tracker announce still not complete 119 seconds after starting it | | [15:55:57] Tracker announce still not complete 179 seconds after starting it | | [15:56:06] Problem connecting to tracker - <urlopen error (110, 'Connection timed out')> Does this imply there are too many connections for the initiation of the process? -- Claude Jones Bluemont, VA, USA
