h8uthemost Posted July 26, 2008 Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 This may be a vague type of question, but it the best IP filter that I can use with uTorrent? Or what are the filters that everyone seem to use? Where did you get them from? I'm new to filters and kind of want to know what you guys are using.Thank you for any info. I'll appreciate it.

DreadWingKnight Posted July 26, 2008 Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 Build your own, as the existing lists are less than accurate and highly overrated.The only thing you need to use IP filtering for is blocking ranges of known hashfail injectors.
