yuriythebest Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 right, I've been using utorrent for a long time now and all of a sudden when I keep opening it it freezes, either almost instantly either after 10-20 minutes. I have outpost firewall+avira antivirus (which updates constantly) so I'd most likely know if a virus was to blame. Everything else runs smooth as silk. So do I use a program like hijackThis to check? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 I've heard complaints before that certain firewall-like functions in Avira cause problems. Perhaps you can try disabling them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuriythebest Posted May 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 right but I have the free avira version with no firewall, also I haven't changed any setting in it for ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted May 30, 2008 Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 Try uninstalling Avira... The thing about apps like these is that they constantly update themselves, so sometimes they break things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuriythebest Posted May 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2008 yup outpost firewall was at fault as always- reinstalling it seems to have solved the issue. you were close though. thanks for your quick replies and uTorrent rulez! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
