Hi Damon,

What is this UK Nova?  It looks as though it is a host for Bit Torrent, but
when you try to sign up, it says sorry, this site is not for public use.  If
that is the case, what is the point of it?

All the best

Well UKNova was working fine for me too until a couple of weeks ago. It's
just enfuriating.

On the My eBay page it's the part of the page where you find the tabulation
as to how many people have been looking at what you're selling, what price
your item's bid stands at etc. So actually it's the most important part of
the page, the only bit I'd want to read in fact.
