  1. I didn't actually mean that you should... and if you wanted to use that feature, you have to open that port as well. Just stick to your normal µTorrent listening port instead of using the alternative port...

  2. @uTorUser: lol yes that's known as well, as that was the simple method ludde chose to hide the WebUI from casual users, since the WebUI files still weren't public, and people were complaining about it "not working." It's actually been like that since before 1.6 was released, and behaves the same way on 1.6 stable. The reason we say Ctrl+P is because it's simpler to just press Ctrl+P rather than holding Ctrl and selecting the menu item :P

  3. If the last three posts are regarding µTorrent... Two months, three months, whatever number of months, it doesn't make any difference. The reason no release dates are announced is because people have these expectations for a grand release on a specific date, and then it turns out the release isn't so grand when ludde has to run against the clock to make a half-baked release full of critical bugs. Trying to figure out a pattern in a nonexistent "release cycle" is even worse, as it creates false illusions and expectations of when a new version should/will be released.

  4. True, it's always a possibility that your ISP is at fault, but I don't think you would've been lucky enough to slip through their throttling/blocking even once if it were a global thing... I don't have any *actual* better explanation myself, but that's just my view on that. So let's try this...

    1. Uninstall your firewall (again if you reinstalled it)

    2. Enable Windows Firewall (it should be able to let µTorrent through, assuming you set µTorrent to add the Windows Firewall entry)

    3. Disconnect your router, and connect your modem directly to the computer

    If this works, then it's not your ISP, but some configuration issue, or probably a crappy router (I'm assuming you have no other security software that would block connections here).

  5. I'll assume you forwarded UDP over that port properly. Um, have you tried uninstalling (not disabling) your firewall to see if it helps?

    These discussion should probably go into a new thread rather than filling the sticky up (which is here purely for information purposes).

  6. Hm, I think he's saying "the program's not bad, but why isn't there a Chinese *something* (translation, maybe?)". I can't understand all of it...

    Edit: Nevermind, Google Translate says "This software is really good, but you can not have Chinese language home page?" So basically, he's praising µTorrent, but asking why there isn't a Chinese homepage. I was close enough :P

  7. In our defense, we did recommend clearing your settings in older threads when people first started experiencing this, just never brought it up in this one as the hope was that the above things were the minimal changes needed. That and the fact that *I* mostly forgot about clearing settings (because of the previous reason). Meh.

  8. Because disabling does not totally rid your system of the hooks a firewall installs on it. At any rate, freeware ZA is useless. If anything, at least use the more configurable Sunbelt Kerio or the older Kerio PFW 2.1.5, which has been reported to work fine.

    Edit: And for some odd reason or another, firewalls aren't detecting a change in the utorrent.exe properly when upgrading to 1.6, so many of them require that you remove old rules. This is *not* a µTorrent bug, but a bug with firewalls not catching the change. My hunch is that ZoneAlarm isn't deleting old rules properly, or isn't doing *something* right with them, so it's not allowing the newer version.
