Found it works well, you will need at least a 2mb link. Because cheap ISPs share your line; you will need at least twice the download speed in order for it to work. C4 runs about 800k.

No chance of a 2M line, 512K is the fastest we get around here.

I tried blocking it - but everytime you start OD it resets itself and removes you block. Most annoying.

anybody know anyway to prevent this reset?

Use a proper firewall with some decent rules or your router. Find out what ports it uses (outbound) and place a hefty restriction is the QoS settings.

THe things you IT bods learn from us truckers.....thus proof that we are the profession most like the number 42
