Dear ardent readers of my blog,
I have recently delved into migrating this blog and another one that I run at samloffee.webs.com to a self-hosted domain and host. You should check updates on that soon.
Lets now go to the duck of the day. Its pretty well fried I guess. you are probably lost in desperation when your school/college/university/workplace has the "torrents blocked". This is not unusual. Most institutions do that to limit on bandwidth use per host and improve the network performance. This however does not justify the reason why users should be blocked from using this file sharing technology which proves to be next frontier after most file servers face the risk of shutdown due to infringement on copyrights on account of content found in their servers (Story for another day). You are probably asking yourself how to get that file you found out is only available through torrent downloads.
You should take note that most often the admin of the network will have probably blocked you from downloading the torrent file (that small torrent file usually below 200kb that initiates the torrent download of interest). you will thus not be able to have a torrent file unless you use an alternative unrestricted internet connection to download the file. In this case, you will have to depend on a magnetic link to be able to use the method am about to describe below. Go to your preferred website that hold torrent file collection. Find the file of interest within the website. Once spotted, choose tto download the same using magnetic link (This usually opens your torrent client say uTorrent/BitTorrent etc and feeds it with the URI- Its pretty happens very fast you might not probably notice it.). Ensure you have either the torrent file of interest or its URI in your torrent client application.This is how you proceed:
1. On your torrent client, right click the file of interest. Select the option of "Copy Magnetic URI".
2. open web browser. Open the ZBIGZ Website
3. Paste the Magnetic URI on the bar at the top. Then click "Go"
4. Proceed with the steps and Wait for the file to be prepared for direct download.
5. Click download/zip when ready
Enjoy the download experience
Robust speeds and resumable downloads can be attained from premium accounts. More info coming soon.

TIPS TO INCREASE SPEED AND PERFORMANCE OF MOZILLA FIREFOX
We all know, Firefox is widely used internet explorer and now many
popular Add-ons are available for it. But If we install many ad-ons for
Firefox, we experienced some slowness in the performance while opening
multiple pages at the same time so to increase the performance here are
some tips.
Write "about:config" In the address bar of your
Firefox browser and press Enter (Some time you can see some security
alert so, click "Proceed" Button). Many configurations you will find.
Now After making some change in to pipelining and some for simultaneous connections we can increase the performance of Firefox.
Setting for Pipelining :
Look for the following entries in to the configuration page.
network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
Now you have to change above entries by just double clicking each entry.
Set network.http.pipelining to TRUE
Set network.http.proxy.pipelining to TRUE
Set network.http.pipelining.maxrequests to number 8 (requests at once).
Now right click anywhere and select New->Integer . Name it as nglayout.initialpaint.delay and set the values 0 .
This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives. This will again help you to increase the performance of browser.
Now we will do some settings for simultaniously connections.
Settings for Simultaneous Connections:
Look for the following Entries and change the values of each entry.
network.http.max-connections = 96
network.http.max-connections-per-server = 32
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy = 24
network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server = 12
You have to follow the same method to change the setting. Double Click on each entry and modify the values for each
Pls. Note that doing the above settings, with some of the pages you can face some loading problem and for those who are using Broadband with Firefox will experience much faster speed from now onwards.
