I have WIndows Vista Home and uTorrent 1.8.3 (many sites won't allow newer versions...) For some time now I have noticed that EVERY torrent crawls to 1 or 2 kB/s when it reaches 99.9%. Even the 'upload' speed grinds to a halt. As the minutes tick by, very slowly the last few pieces get downloaded. This can take 10 or 15 minutes for the last 0.1% - even if the original file is only a 200MB TV episode! Finally, once the last piece is downloaded, everything works fine again, the upload speed returns to normal . I have used uTorrent for many years and this is a 'new feature' that I hadn't experienced originally It may only have happened since I upgraded to 1.8.3 from 1.8.2. I do save all files to a NAS device, but this never caused issues in the past. Does anyone else have a similar story to tell AND a solution, please? Many thanks in advance. Nibbos
