H0PE Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Ok I got same issue so just to clarify (yes I will read the sticky about the stuff with isps as well).I got big upload.My ports are open fine, and downloads were ok a week -or so- before earlier.I got like 0(8690) seeds and 69(1793) peers.I didnt change the ratio I left it on the defaults.That means... what?UPDATE: Actually not all downloads like that, two. But lot of seeds in the list and I dont understand why they are just uploading and uploading while no downloads. Other downloads at the same time seems ok, I got download. Ohh and these two dodgy download I got is at 99% for a week now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H0PE Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 but then what about the download? I mean I can just delete it and start over? And if its fake how could I download that many like95%? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisParr Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 Perhaps you updated your uTorrent to 1.6There are lots of problems with 1.6 and my downloads are capped at 10kbs and my uploads are capped at 50kbs, which is weird because they were 200+/100+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H0PE Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 Guys this is insane.http://isohunt.com/torrents/?ihq=miami+vice+2006+dvdripThe 1.45gb version Ive downloaded so far, 90.7% and cannot continue further but it says 7-8thousand seeds!

Switeck Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 The best way to know a torrent is fake is when there's insane numbers of seeds...and you never connect to any of them! You have to STOP those torrents as you're just wasting hard drive space and bandwidth.Posioned torrents are real torrents but with lots of ips that are very near each other that always give you garbage. You have to use ipfilter.dat in µTorrent to block those hostile ips. An example of hostile ips is if you see these ips: 38.25.10.5, 38.25.10.12, 38.25.10.14, 38.25.10.20 -- they only differ in the last number.

H0PE Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 Wow thats amazing info thanks Switeck I never thought there is such thing as fake torrent. Why people doing that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 @ChrisParr: If it were the version of µTorrent that was causing the issue, then it would be happening to EVERY torrent. But as H0PE wrote, it was only happening to 2 torrents out of all the torrents being downloaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
