Government Shuts Down BitTorrent Tracker


Today the Malaysian government ordered prominent webhosting provider Shinjiru to close down BitTorrent site LeechersLair.com. The order came from the Content, Consumer and Network Security Division of the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission.

I just got in a few days before they shut down. Too bad they got shut down before I truly enjoyed it. :(

Still down on my side. I wonder where they were hosting the site.... Did someone mention Malaysia? No news as to whether they'll be making a return anytime soon... :(

Wasn't it's future in jeopardy anyway? It couldn't raise the funds to pay for servers if I remember correctly, so ultimately it was going to go down some time in the near future; this just comes as more of a surprise.

Did someone mention Malaysia?

Yes, that's where it was hosted.

Yes, you're right, and at first I thought they could have gone down because of not being able to cope with server costs indeed.

I hope it gets relaunched on another country but to be honest I doubt that will happen. :frown:

From Filenetworks Blog (http://filenetworks.blogspot.com/2009/04/leecherslair-down-but-will-return-soon.html)


You are probably tired of hearing about trackers being shut down because that’s been happening a lot lately. LeechersLair, a large General/0Day tracker that was featured on FILEnetworks Blog several times, too was forced offline by the Malaysian government due to possible copyright infringement (at the time of shut down, LL was hosted by Shinjiru, a hosted based in Malaysia). However, we learn that this will not be the end of LeechersLair – tracker staff are determined to bring the site back online, even if it meant moving to a host in a different country.

Nice !

That is great! I was actually enjoying them before they were closed. They are not as big as TL but it seemed to have all the files. :klatsch_3:

More News ..

Message received from leecherslair.com on 2009-04-23 00:25:18 GMT.--------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi everyone As most of you will be aware by now leecherslair is currently offline due to us being taken down by the Malaysian government. You can read more on the link below. Government Shuts Down BitTorrent Tracker | TorrentFreak (http://torrentfreak.com/government-shuts-down-bittorrent-tracker-090421/)

We are hoping that the server will be released back to us sometime tomorrow but we cannot be certain of that. One thing I will say is that we will not be staying with this hosting company and I am at this very moment looking for another host. Do not listen to any rumours about LL, we are not closing down and I hope that we can get the site back up as soon as possible.

I am sending this email out to all members via a backup which I have loaded onto another server. I do have a test server which some members are hanging out on as it has a shoutbox and we can also keep members up to date with what is happening. If you want to join us then click the link below, you will need to register as it has nothing to do with the main site at all. http://ks368582.kimsufi.com/index.php

Alternately you can register an account with our forums to also keep up to date with the goings on on the following link: The Lair Forums (http://themuttsnuts.org)

Any member that is worried about this situation there's no need as I have removed all logs from the server as well as all snatch lists. So there is nothing for the Malaysian government to gain from it. I will keep you all updated one way or another and I can assure you that the Lair WILL be back

Hopefully this may give members a taste of not having LL, and may spur them to make donations.

Good, now we have to redo our ratio buffer! :wink2:

I hope the script is as easy.

Even the PMR worked with their old scripts... :tongue:

By the way, I now get HTTP 404 when trying to access the tracker. Hopefully this means they're moving to their new domain.
