SuperTorrents

About
SuperTorrents was a very popular and long lasting general 0day tracker. The closest estimate to the creation date was a statement from the owner in July 2013 saying that he created the tracker over 9 years ago when he was 16.

SuperTorrents was eventually shut down voluntarily by its owner as he wanted to move away from torrenting. He gave the database to the staff to create a new tracker with, to which they did, creating StellarWinds, a shortlived general 0day tracker.
