The Torrentz torrent engine has mysteriously shut down without any notice.
Torrentz had shut down a few hours ago. In a note on its front page, Torrentz said: "Torrentz was a free, fast and powerful meta-search engine combining results from dozens of search engines."
The word 'results' had a hyperlink to another page that just said "Torrentz will always love you. Farewell."
The site has removed all the torrent links.
Torrentz was one of the world’s largest meta-search engines.
The closure comes soon after KickassTorrents shut down following the arrest of its founder Artem Vaulin in Poland.
