Terryj Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 Mybe you guys should try turning off UPnP mapping - I've been on a similar thread regarding Firewall errors since 1.7.x turning it off and the messages and alarms disappear. They didn't occur in earlier revisions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay.mack Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 finaly sorted it... i un installed zonealarm and utorrent(upgraded version) then downloaded a new version of za, and utorrent 1.7.5 they bothe are working perfectly together now no true vector crashing at all, thanks for the suggestions, btw i have turned all of the options on that i turned off and still no problems.looks like it may well have been zone alarm, i got a reply back off them askin me if the .log file had updated recently. i replyed no and they told me that could be a symtom of a corrupted instalation and recomended i reinstall it.sorry for giving u guys a hard time about this i was just frustrated with the thing crashing after upgrading to 1.7.5. part of the reason i was convinced it was utorrent was the amount of times i updated in 2 weeks, jumping from 1.6.1 to 1.7.5 i thaught that u guys were repairing errors in the updates that were issued...anyways thanx for the replys and continue the work on the easyest client around...

igarn Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 I used to be a happy user of both uTorrent and Zone Alarm for more than a year until yesterday, when I upgraded to uTorrent 1.8.3Since then TrueVector keeps crashing.My previous version was 1.8.1ZoneAlarm version:8.0.298.000TrueVector version:8.0.298.000Driver version:8.0.298.000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 That's a Zone Alarm bug...that was never fixed. The only working solution is to completely uninstall Zone Alarm and get more reliable security software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
igarn Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 If the problem only occurs in 1.8.3 and not in 1.8.1 something can obviously be done. The only question is whether it only makes a difference on my computer or everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 The later uTorrent versions tend to be more aggressive...you were just on the ragged edge of disaster in the past (or get a recent ZA update) and that pushed your box over the edge.Try the Troubleshooting link in my signature, it might reduce the crashes almost to nothing.

GTHK Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 It's a ZoneAlarm bug, and ZoneAlarm is garbage, use better software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
igarn Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 What do you mean with "aggressive" ?Are there any options I could use to make it less "aggressive"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Earlier versions (before v1.8) didn't even have uTP connection support...or Teredo/IPv6 support.DHT and PEX may have been tweaked slightly. The half open connection limit is far more likely to be reached and STAY at that limit with v1.8.3 than v1.6. All of these things make the unstable+buggy program Zone Alarm MORE likely to crash.You could disable uTP and Teredo/IPv6 connections, reduce bt.connect_speed (attempting 20 new outgoing connections per second is a bit much!), reduce net.max_halfopen from 8 to 4, and reduce global and per-torrent connection max. Also disable UPnP, NAT-PMP, DHT, Local Peer Discovery, AND Resolve IPs (right-click in peers window).After doing all that, Zone Alarm should crash a little less often...
