mitdanog Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 In addition to recent impossibly slow downloads (that I think I have attributed to a bad swarm), I am having a strange problem that I have not encountered before. After I press the "Download this Torrent" button, I use the option "Open with uTorrent (default). This has never been an issue in the past. What has happened recently however, is that this download is now hanging, and obviously I cannot download any further. Has anyone any ideas?

Invy Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 Try saving the .torrent file to your computer first, rather than trying to open it directly from the web. See if this helps. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitdanog Posted September 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 Yes this does work. I was just wondering if anyone had any idea as to why the other option would stop working all of a sudden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 Firefox is weird sometimes. Try Tools -> Options -> Content -> File Types -> Manage. Remove .torrent from the list then try again. And be sure µTorrent is still associated properly (Preferences -> General -> Associate with .torrent files) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
