Sky Broadband - Are you having a laugh?

Well - recently, you can download this Sky software, and then download and watch movies from your computer.

After doing this at home, and noticing my router going nuts, I was thinking - What the hell's going on!?!

Did you know that Sky reserve the right to use your computer as a download source - P2P File Sharing ring a bell? There is a service installed on your computer when you install the Sky software, it's called KService, turn this off (or set it to Disabled), and you'll be back to normal.

I don't believe that a large company like Sky would be penny-pinching bandwidth by using a hidden file-sharing network.....amazing.
