World of Warcraft: Torrent Updater

WoW Updater

    i know you can get the united kingdon version but then u have to get the en-gb updates instead of en-us but umm… i wanna know where to get the 1.0.0 en-us client

    Would be nice if it actually used the same ports as standard torrent clients. Having to open up more ports on the router to use the same protocol is idiotic.
