I've had times when it's faster to start a game download on steam, download it from torrent - copy it to the steam directory and let steam validate the files and replace what isn't legitimate.

Was getting a whopping 1.2MB/sec downloading Call Of Duty 4 on a Gbit line - Managed to get it done via torrents a hell of a lot quicker.

Steam just had to replace the exe with a legit one and it was done..
