Yea but that isn't the 64-bit.. I can download fast and w/o issues.. I can't get the _64bit_ DVD ISO. I can get the 64bit cdrom images 1 -7... but not the DVD ISO __via the torrent__.

I get smoking downloads of unrelated torrents. Smoking downloads from various vendor sites. (ie: Oracle 11g in ~90 minutes)

I just did a normal download using wget and downloaded it just fine.
Here is the shell script I used:

#!/bin/sh
host=http://mirror.clarkson.edu/centos/5.5/isos/i386/
mount -v /distrostemp
#wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}CentOS-5.5-i386-LiveCD.iso
#wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}CentOS-5.5-i386-bin-1of7.iso
#wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}CentOS-5.5-i386-bin-2of7.iso
#wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}CentOS-5.5-i386-bin-3of7.iso
#wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}CentOS-5.5-i386-bin-4of7.iso

#wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}CentOS-5.5-i386-bin-7of7.iso
wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}CentOS-5.5-i386-bin-DVD.iso
wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}CentOS-5.5-i386-netinstall.iso
wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}md5sum.txt
wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}md5sum.txt.asc
wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}sha1sum.txt
wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}sha1sum.txt.asc
umount -v /distrostemp

and

#!/bin/sh
host=http://mirror.clarkson.edu/centos/5.5/isos/x86_64/
mount -v /distrostemp
#wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}CentOS-5.5-x86_64-LiveCD.iso

#wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}CentOS-5.5-x86_64-bin-DVD-1of2.iso
wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}CentOS-5.5-x86_64-bin-DVD-2of2.iso
wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}CentOS-5.5-x86_64-netinstall.iso

wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}sha1sum.txt
wget -c -nv -P /distrostemp/ ${host}sha1sum.txt.asc
umount -v /distrostemp


I ran it overnight (I did the 32-bit ISOs as three successive nights and
the 64-bit ISOs over 4 nights).  I did this on the local library's 'high
speed' (900mhz wireless) link (about 1-2 mbits/sec).
