tx for all the feedback. i finally got it to work. the issue was that there was a spyware app that sat there and listened on port 8080 as well. the spyware was hidden pretty well and i took the most recent update from spybot s&d to find it. after it was removed then everything worked.

2. You can move the config file (settings.dat (!!), resume.dat, etc.) to the folder where µTorrent's exe resides. how do i do that?? I'm guessing the issue i'm having here is b/c i installed the latest uTorrent client (webUI 1.7.5) package to C:\Programs and use the default %AppData%\uTorrent path of (my documents\username\appdata\utorrent). that default installed placed settings.dat in a directory which can not be shared. So upon web service request, the path of the WebUI.zip is in a private folder resulting in "can not connect" error. I've gone over the readme.txt several times and can't find anything i'm gone wrong that could of otherwise caused this. I don't have a limited access list. the same result of "can not connect" also occurs when i do localhost or 127.0.0.1:8080/gui/

still having a issue with webui. 2 quick questions in additions to the above: 1. does iis need to be enabled?? 2. how to change %appdata%\utorrent to another directory aside from my documents/appdata folder tx

confused here about 1.7.5 build. I've had 1.6.3 working before but now i'm working on a new machine. The ip of the machine is 192.168.11.2 and i've used the default port of 8080. I've dumped webui.zip file to the %AppData%\uTorrent directory which happens to be (documents and settings\user\appdata\xxx). here's where the problem come in, after dumping the .zip file in as well as enabling webUI in the control panel, I still get a can not connect error message. This massage is received when trying to connect on both the remote machine (using 192.168.11.2:8080/gui/ and machine machinename) as well as the local machine (usuing 127.0.0.1:8080/gui/) i'm wondering if 1. the webui.zip i've downloaded from the 1st page of this thread is compatible with build 1.7.5?? 2. if having all the web files in %AppData%\uTorrent directory is causing a security issue when trying to connect?? if how so do i change path? error i'm getting: Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 192.168.11.2:8080. url i'm using http://192.168.11.2:8080/gui/ tx

2 quick questions: 1. does webUI run another session of the utorrent client?? the seeds i've added over the webUI does not show up on the server app itself. 2. more of a 1.b question: if the webui runs it's own session, which port does it use?? i've turned on the admin console to use port 8080, does it mean it's fetching torrents via 8080 as well?
