uTorrent trying to connect to itself through my socks5 proxy?

Hi,

 

I setup 3proxy on a remote computer that I would like to use as a socks5 proxy. I set my settings on uTorrent and I can download, but I only get 1/4th of my connection speed and sometimes the trackers on torrents say “timed out”. So I decided to turn on logging on my 3proxy app to diagnose the problem. 3proxy logs show the IP and port that the application is trying to connect to as well as the DNS for that IP and the port. From what I can tell, utorrent is trying to connect to my local IP on my port set in utorrent, it’s also trying to connect to 127.0.0.1. I don’t understand why it would do that… does anyone know?

 

The problem is not 3proxy, I have tried two other proxy programs on two other machines and the results are the same.

(I have replaced my IP with 1.1.1.1 for this log)

There are a lot of lines that say UDPMAP, I’m not sure what that is.

Can you be more specific? I thought it was as simple as TCP and UDP protocol, both of which are supported by the proxies I have tested on. I have verified using wireshark that the traffic on the proxy is being sent out through the proxy and also incoming UDP connections are being proxied as well
