aussieconfused Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 due to the amazing efforts of windows xp pro i somehow lost my version 6 of utorrent completely and have now downloaded 1.7.2 but of course i have no idea of the settings that i need to get it to run.i have downloaded a few torrents but they are just sitting there with red downward facing arrows doing nothing.so is there a comprehensive tutorial for setting up version 1.7.2 i have a d-link 302g modem router thingy i still have utorrent in my exceptions for ports and when i go into options/speed guide it comes up green and lists the current port as open.so i am at a loss as to what to do now i know that there used to be a webpage that went into the settings for d-link router/modem thingies but i cannot remember the settings.this may not be the place for this post but i thought it best to put it here than clog up the rooms.any help appreciated.cheer'sneil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussieconfused Posted July 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 hold that thought i just found it cheer's guy's for all your help.thanks switeck i went straight back and got completely rid of 1.7.2 and then redownloaded 1.6 and it worked perfectly all the original settings were there without me having to do a thing (and that is very good for the computer) anyhow there is just one little thing now i cannot find a way to get a desktop icon/shortcut when i shut utorrent down i have to go back to the folder and run it again so any tips for that one?
