I downloaded http://installers.crypticstudios.com/torrents/Star%20Trek%20ST.0.20100108a.0.torrent and ran my BT client (btdownloadcurses) in Linux/Debian (will copy to Windows XP Pro. SP3 later). However, it is not starting after a few minutes:

file: Star Trek ST.0.20100108a.0
size: 8,221,868,355 (7.7 G)
dest: /home/trekkie/download/Star Trek ST.0.20100108a.0
progress: _____________________________________________
status: connecting to peers (0.0%)
speed: 0 B/s down - 0 B/s up
totals: 0.0 M down - 0.0 M up
error(s):


Is it working for anyone else? Is the tracker down? Thank you in advance. :)

    The torrent file seems to be working ok. It'll get faster as more people finish downloading and more people upload the files. I plan to seed the torrent myself for awhile.

    Finally some progress:

    However, still crappy. I am downloading from FilePlanet at about 700 KB/sec though. So if FP finishes, then I will abort my BT download.
