As of January 1, 2006, our favorite location for patches, movies, and a solid defense for P2P networks when used legally, FileRush has closed down their BitTorrent servers for good:
As a way to ring in the new 2006 year, we've decided to discontinue the File Rush file section. This covers the bittorrents and direct downloads featured on the front page of filerush.com. Filerushnews.com will of course continue under the expert abilities of Brandon Shipe, and I'll be refocusing my efforts into areas where I can assist with that where possible.
This is truly a sad day for many of us. FileRush has become the ideal example for the efficiency, reliability, and usefulness of peer-to-peer file transfer and the legal use of BitTorrent on a wide-scale. FileRush, what are you thinking?
In response to this news, MultiplayerGamers has removed all RSS feeds we once carried for FileRush. We are also looking into possibly running our own BitTorrent tracker to fill the huge void now left by FileRush.




Re: Filerush Gives Up
It's a damn shame... now I have to download the WoW Patches the dumb regular way... It sucks too the World of Warcraft bittorrent updater you can't set the upload speed and it always kills my bandwidth...
