hi guys new to this wonderfull forum....
im having very low bandwidth connection(256 kbps)

upon close inspection i found out there was a rahxephon torrent has been downloaded 5+gb....and i never downloaded it in fact....
its frustrating me,how is it possible..... ???

You should take a look at this section of the wiki.

BakaBT has a one account per lifetime policy, i doubt they'll grant that even if you ask.

and quoting the above link

Quote from: wiki
I am seeing torrents on my userpage that I never downloaded / Someone has hijacked my account

Cause #1: People are using your torrent key (you accidentally posted your torrent key publicly)
Cause #2: You hot-linked to a .torrent file that is tagged with your passkey
Cause #3: You posted a screenshot of your torrent program with your passkey visible
Cause #4: You revealed your torrent passkey to one or more people
Cause #5: You uploaded a .torrent file that has your passkey to another tracker.
Cause #6: You sent a .torrent file that has your passkey to a friend, or hotlinked the torrent download button to him.

Solution: Go to your settings page and generate a new key. All your old torrents will become invalid immediately, so you will have to re-download your torrents. Wait about 10-20 minutes to be sure the tracker has recorded your key change before resuming your torrenting.

To prevent similar issues occurring in future, do not hot-link to our torrent files (only link to the description page), and do not post your personal .torrent file (the one you download when logged in) to other trackers.

Also, you should change your account password.

what Kyrdua posted - one account per lifetime. we can't remove individual stats on say-so either for obvious reasons.

if you want you can swing by the support chan and we can try to at least figure out who's the culprit ;)
