Leylo Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 I still can,t get the red arrows to turn blue.I Still get the message (no connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it).I have been reading the threads on this forum for weeks trying to sort it out, however no luck.I have forwarded ports correctly and have the green light at the bottom.I have tried disabling DHT and UPanP.I have tried the tcp.patch.Nothing seems to work the arrows instantly go red on everyone of the numerous torrents I try to download and I get very slow download speeds.I am on 4 meg cable broadband in the UK and when run the speed check everything is fine.I would be grateful if anyone could help me sort this out, thanks.

Switeck Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 Did you use Speed Guide (CTRL+G) to set an appropriate upload speed and other settings?Is your half-open connection limit unchanged?Does your ISP use a proxy for HTTP traffic?Is your computer completely clean of viruses, trojans, and spyware?

Ultima Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 If it's already infected, even good scanners might not be helpful, especially if you don't already have them installed. Anyway, if you still want to try, Kaspersky AntiVirus is a good solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 Have you also run SpyBot Seek and Destroy or Ad Aware? (Those are designed to find and remove adware/spyware.)In speed guide, alot of people set the drop-down xx/##k to their DOWNLOAD speed...which causes all sorts of problems.

Leylo Posted July 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2006 ok since I have ran these anti-virus programmes my internet will not work unless u torrent is completely switched off.Trackers are still off-line and displaying varying messasges such as (connection closed by peer), (tracker status off-line, timed out) and another long message that i cant read fast enough as it is only on for about half a second.In the proxy box on preferences it displays HTTP then a blank box then port 8080, is this what you were refering to in your first replyI have tried different settings in the speed guide, however nothing changes.
