While uploading and downlaoding Torrents I will occasionally get a web page display error saying that the site might be down only restarting helps could the torrents have anything to do with this?

If it is from your torrent downloading, then it would most likely be due to your use of upload bandwidth in your bittorrent client. Capping upload in your bittorrent client to 80% of your overall upload capacity should resolve that issue. See the link below for more information and links to help.


Can my ip address be traced through bit torrent?

YesYes it can but it should not worry you. BitTorennt draws information from many users to one place. When you are downloading lets just say a Legal free for download program on bittorrent it can come from Jimmy down the road Nick in New York and Sam Yaming from China all at once, but this happens through thousands if not millions of connections. So when downloading and uploading you are just a microscopic number in the scheme of things. If they want to take you down their are a million other people they would probably have to go through first.Also, the government already said they have given up on catching criminals using BitTorrent. Not that that would effect you since you only download completely legal things!
