rom1988 Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 hii have a funny problem with my firewall, when utorrent is runningi'm sure it's not the firewall, because my computer is always running and so is the firewall and i never had any problemsnow when i start utorrent everything is ok at first, speeds are fine...but then after a few hours, speeds drop to a few bytes/s even though there are always a million seeders, and my firewall gives me an error message saying something about a memory error and the truevector service shuts down...if i turn off the firewall, utorrent flies beyond 150k/sec...it's getting annoying, i don't know how to fix, and i don't wanna keep my firewall off when running utorrent seeing the downloads sometimes take days...help anyone??(i have win xp, zone alarm free firewall, i'm using a router, and port forwarding) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 It suggests the firewall IS at fault when uT runs because uT makes extensive usage of the networking subsystem. Are you running with DHT enabled? There is a known problem with the nvidia "forceware" firewall when dealing with UDP packets causing it to bleed RAM.I recognize truevector ... and search confirms ... ZoneAlarm is not known for being... useful in working with programs (It is either a hit-or-miss around here). What router are you behind? Does your network hardware setup look similar to my post? Since you have a router, truthfully you don't need a firewall... as incoming connections NOT specified to bypass it are automatically blocked.
