d.chatten Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 As the little says really, on the odd accession i can see my computer name show up in the "Peers" section of uTorrent instead of the ip address or host name of the said peer, also, when this happens the client that is listed is "Mainline 5.0.7", is this normal and do i have anything to be worried about, also, why is this happening.

Lord Alderaan Posted April 5, 2007 Report Share Posted April 5, 2007 In a home LAN when someone tries to resolve your IP (including yourself) it is usually resolved by your router to your computername. Outside people can't see this. They see your Internet Host. In any case it isn't much to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
