Will not Upload / Download

[msicbimbi]

Hello, I am not all that crafty when it comes to these things, but I know there is something wrong with my UTorrent. It will not download anything I pick.

I know it is not the things I select to download because:

a) it will not work for anything as I previously said

all the ones I pick have more seeders then peers

I also have a green check at the bottom of the torrent. Every time I select something to download, the kB/s Download start at .05 then drop in increments of .01 until they reach 0.0 kB/s.

Can someone offer up some suggestions? Also, on one other note, the UTorrent did work last week. It is only the past four or five days that it has been acting up.

Thanks for any help!

What happens when you try one of http://distribution.openoffice.org/p2p/ ??

Do you get any ERROR message in the "Status" column of the main torrent pane?

What about in "Tracker Status" on the General tab.

[msicbimbi]

I have not tried openoffice. I am downloading it now. There is no error message in the "Status" column. In fact, it only says downloading. "Tracker Status" says "invalid http reply." It keeps trying to update the "Tracker Status," but it then says "invalid http reply," every time.

Well you can stop downloading it. It's only for testing your line :/ It certainly sounds like your security software is mucking with things. What do you run for firewall? What about a bundles security suite? Or maybe some update to your AntiVirus?

[msicbimbi]

Ok, I removed the program that you told me to download. As for my security, I have basic Windows XP Firewall, and my Virus Protection is Defender Pro Anti-Virus. I am sorry, but what is a bundles security suite?

[GTHK]

A security suite is something with anti-virus AND firewall in one.

[msicbimbi]

Oh, ok! Well, all I have is the Defender Pro Anti-Virus and the Windows Firewall. Thanks for explaining. I am still open to any suggestions anyone has. Thanks!

Can you post a HijackThis log?

[msicbimbi]

I am sorry Firon, but I do not know what you mean. I am wondering if it is my Firewall. Can someone guide me through this?

Get HijackThis from trendsecure.com, run it, view the log, and post the contents here.

[msicbimbi]

Oh, ok! Thanks for being patient with me. I just did what you all asked, and here are the results:
