I finaly have adsl
and have been using bit torrent.
Its damn good not having to wait 12 months to see tv shows and also seeing shows that wont get shown in oz.
1 problem. Bit torrent is really screwing with my useage limit, with my uploads being about as much as my downloads.
I herd one guy talking about how he gets a lot of his movie and games and stuff by ftp.
Can anyone give me some help and/or suggestions?

Get a new ISP, or try IRC. No one uses FTP anymore.

You're asking for warez sources - this is an infringement of forum rules...

or limit your bittorrent upload speed. People on the networks understand that if someone has usage limits they can't necessarily keep it up until they have given as much as they take. I find that limiting to about 13kb/s on adsl gives fairly good results.

I strongly suggest you read the
forum rules. I point you more specifically to Rule 8:
Do not post requests for, links to, or significant information about warez, cracks, hacks, serial numbers, or anything else designed to get around registration or purchase of non-free software. Shareware is not free software. Doing so may result in disciplinary action.
I deal harshly with such things beyond the first warning. The next step is almost always a ban, sometimes permanent.
We're a helpful group, but I draw the line very clearly on this point.
If I show up at your door, chances are you did something to bring me there.

Copy that Mr. Blank.
No more posts like this one.
I was mainly after help with bit torrent.
I shall keep it as leagle as possible from now on.
