BitTorrent is often maligned, but overlooking it might be foolish. INHOLLAND University’s IT department found that it can speed patching and image updates so much, that rollouts that once took four days now only take four hours.

BTGuard is an easy to use proxy service that adds an extra layer of privacy to your BitTorrent transfers. The service is designed for BitTorrent users who don’t want their ISPs or any third party to log or throttle their IPs or traffic. BTGuard reroutes all your BitTorrent traffic through their servers in Canada. This means that anyone who connects to you via BitTorrent, even the MPAA or RIAA, will see BTGuard’s IP, and not yours.
