A lot of schools block p2p programs to save on bandwidth. Try the links in Lord Of The Rings post here: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showthread.php?t=61176

For more info, just search the forums for college campus or similar. You'll find lots of posts on the subject.

Sorry, I wish I could help but my experience is limited to my own house......Ask around campus and see if anyone has had any success using filesharing apps. Maybe they can help.....You may be out of luck.

Alot of the files being shared are fake/spam files. This thread has tips for downloading files: How to find music.
