i can find .torrent files without need of a website; all we need is to create a decentralized software with new torrent files specific features.

Just checkout that sancho software

Greg Grahifen : “SCREW YOU GUYZ TORRENT SPY IS AUSOME IM KINDA SAD THEY BLOCKED IT FROM THE STATES, THOSE GUYZ NEEDED IT BUT THE REVOLUTION MUST LIVE ON”

U want revolution, then get rid of torrent website and move on to open source decentralized torrent file only search softwares or create one. By torrent files i mean the .torrent files and not the torrent data files.

Just look at the number of decentralized networks this one supports http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MLDonkey

At this point does it really matter? t-spy sucks since they stopped sorting the torrents three weeks ago. No fun sifting thru pages of shit to find something you like from the latest-main group.

The domain in not owned by godaddy, it is registered through godaddy. godaddy is the registrar, the owner is the registrant. . . which is obscured due to the private registration used for this purpose. The site is not hosted with godaddy as the name servers are pointed to zone edit, if it were hosted with godady it would be pointed to secureserver.net. so effectively godaddy has very little to do with the actual site.

I never go to TorrentSpy anymore. Ever since they removed all the sections for specific tv shows over a year ago, the site has been in a downward spiral.

There’s so many ads it rivals IGN in that department. In late 2005 I foolishly visited the site before I had my firewall installed just after I reinstalled Win, and got a virus from them.

After they were bought out, the site has gotten even worse.

Fuck TorrentSpy. I hope it burns to the ground. It’s a shame, because it was a great site when it started up originally.

NewTorrents.info too advertise one of those malicious (cloned) clients – TorrentSoftware.

Here is the prog’s site -

Another interesting bit of info is that their domain is owned by GoDaddy, who are known for creating spyware and adware.

WhoIs on the domain -
