# and they are wrong.
There are plenty of tests to show if your particular traffic is limited. The law does not currently allow for traffic shaping of particular traffic data.
If Virgin were then the people I work with in this area (privacy and data interception) would be making a stink about it.
To be honest if you are using Vuse then that's the problem. many trackers have vuse on their banlist and will refuse connections.
You are complaining about p2p though. You have to look at the nature of your traffic and ask yourself if you are being reasonable.
You should be using Utorrent and you should be encrypting your outgoing data so that your seeding can't be interfered with.
But what you should be doing if you want to maintain illegal downloading, is renting a seedbox and downloading all your traffic from that via FTP.

as for what vuse say? I prefer to rely on real time data from the Max Planck institute than a commercial p2p client maker.
