Hi,
I posted recently about slow downloads and I eventually came to the conclusion that the problem was being caused by my ISP.
As an attempt to solve this problem I downloaded, installed, and paid for a program called HTTP Tunnel (http://www.http-tunnel.com/html/).
Well it solved the problem straight away! No longer am I downloading at 53 b/s! Now I am getting normal speeds like 20 K/s.
But I can't figure out how to make DC++ Active with HTTP Tunnel. Under the "connection settings" field in the Settings Tab of DC++ I have set it as a SOCKS5 and set the SOCKS IP as 127.0.0.1 and the port as 1080.
In HTTP Tunnel I have the box selected which says "No Proxy, only a firewall."
Everything works, but I am passive. Is it even possible to be active when using HTTP Tunnel? Or do I have the benefit of high speed downloads, but the negative of being a passive user?
Nick.

Actually I recently read a howto that would let you... but of course since it was an evil client going through a proxy, I will not tell howjoakim_tosteberg wrote:It's not possible to be in active nad use http tunnel, yes. Not sure why, I don't know that much about http tunnels
