The client showed my download speed dropping from 3/4th my cap to nothing and showed the download as stagnant. My bandwidth monitor on my computer showed my download bandwidth going up till I hit cap and my upload shutting off... The % bar doesn't even move in the downloader, yet it's still downloading... funny...

Invites are tied to your B.net account. So unless someone is going to give you their Battle.net account you're not going to see one.

Sure, I will sell it to you, By my calculations its at least worth 800 bucks, all the Warcraft games, Starcraft I with expansions and II episode 1, the Diablo series, and lets not forget my WoW game with all expansions and is pretty much current save for the last two months.
