Hi i am new to this so bere with me. I cant seem to get any further than saving it for downloads, the red symbol with the down arrow is on all of my current downloads. how do i fix this.

would it have anything to do with moving abroad as it was working in perfect order before i moved from the u.k to spain. please help. thanks

What is the error?

[nickiemcg]

You have NOT answered my question.

Sorry to hijack your thread!

I'm having tracker issues everywhere, my ports are fine, DHT is off.

Can anybody tell me what's going on?

[DreadWingKnight]

Why did you hijack this thread and not post your own?

[thedudeguy]

Sorry. It just seemed like we had the same problem.

... Tracker Status errors are usually self-explanatory. You didn't even mention WHICH one you get.

[thedudeguy]

Both "connection closed by peer" and "timed out"

[jewelisheaven]

Software firewall/security/AV ? Closed by peer means you're blocked most often. Timed out is.. well overloaded connection. http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992

[thedudeguy]

all my personal firewalls are off, and the speed set doesn't go over my upload speed.

[jewelisheaven]

"off" doesn't mean not-functional in many cases. I was asking which ones you use, not IF you use them. Read the sticky... provide more information.

[thedudeguy]

I use ubuntu and the default firewall is inactive by default. that's the only one I have.
