uTorrent and Your Freedom

[JDPingpong]

Up until a day ago, uTorrent plus using Your Freedom to have tracker data go through a proxy was working perfectly. All of a sudden, the trackers are unable to connect. My university blocks tracker data, which is why i use Your Freedom to run the tracker data through a proxy.

In the uTorrent trackers tab under status, i get the following two messages,

"connection closed by peer"

"Proxy error: Bad socks4 reply 2"

In the Your Freedom messages tab, i get the following,

"1: Client version: 20080822-01

This method was working perfectly to connect to the tracker though a proxy then use my normal connection to download the files. My computer is hooked up to a router and i'm fairly positive i have all the correct ports forwarded, as i get the green check mark from uTorrent at the bottom. If anyone can shed any light on this situation with a few suggestions, i would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

Your proxy went down. Take it up with your VPN service

Edit: It's either down or they/their host doesn't want you connecting to trackers anymore.
