iris456 Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 I can't download or upload anything for the past 2 days and in the option "trackers", right next to the tracker's name it says: "Connection closed by peer".What does this mean and what can I do about it? PLEASE HELP!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Either your ISP is crippling your connection, the trackers are now blocking you, you've got hostile software (viruses/trojans/bad commercial software) on your computer, or you've got really bad settings in uTorrent.1st and 2nd links in my signature should be able to help most of that...

Firon Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Do you use a firewall or antivirus app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweethizashi Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 hey, i have the same issue. and i did the forced encryption option, i checked for possible solutions and i saw that this is a common problem ppl in malaysia face. the thing is, i don't live in malaysia, i'm in greece and i still don't get why this happenend. i have disabled the win vista firewall and i have also unblocked utorrent in the eset smart security firewall, so that shouldn't be the issue, as i was able to download before. so what's the deal with this? it's actually the first time it happens..is there any solution to this or is it just a thing one should wait and be patient about?

Switeck Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 sweethizashi,karate here:http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=42973seems to be on the same ISP as you (athedsl-######.home.otenet.gr).And also experiencing problems, though his seems to just be very low upload speeds rather than "Connection closed by peer".Another person on same ISP is having "Connection closed by peer" problems:http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=43033IGITIHI (also on same ISP) said ISP is shaping BitTorrent traffic:http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=36490 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Well, you could try uninstalling Eset's firewall to see if it makes any difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris456 Posted July 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!TO SWEETTHIZASHI:I live in Greece too, all my torrents are from the same tracker - I have an account - and I haven't been blocked or sent any notification. So I just tried to add a torrent from a different tracker and guess what: no problem. I think I'll take the "it is just a thing one should wait and be patient about" choice and hope it won't take long... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 No, you have to start your own thread because your issue is NOT related to the ones in the threads you have been posting in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
