Windstream gets their backbone connection from AT&T Worldnet, and that network
tends to block P2P on a rotating basis to ch3ap out on bandwidth.

The blockade will probably move on to other areas in a few weeks or less, unless
Windstream wants to keep it blocked permanently to save money.

You could try Azureus for bittorrent downloads and search for torrents on The Pirate Bay to feed to it.

If your ISP has a newsgroup server, the Nomad News newsreader is easy to use.
