Drunk Upload - Uploaded transfer size increasing unless I send anythin

[Alex_Derren]

Hello all.

I just start to use uTorrent and fixing some parameters. To try a file download I searched for a torrent and downloaded it. The opened it in uTorrent its downloading now. Everyting is ok till now.

But when I want to analyse the software during download, I see there are something going from my pc. Because uploaded file size is always increasing. But I havent started any file upload proccess yet.

Can you please tell why my uploaded transfer size increasing? What uTorrent sends something from my PC?

Thanks,

Alex.

Thank you DreadWingKnight,

I looked at guide before I post my topic. I am posting the comment as the same:

"Uploaded displays the total amount of data you have uploaded since the torrent job was added"

But my question is this :

I havent started any upload proccess. Why is the upload transfer size increasing ???

What uTorrent sends from my pc? Where it uploads something? Besides it does this without my permission.

Thanks.

Anything < 10% of your download can be considered upload. All the data being sent is required for your client to continue getting data. Unless you can enumerate specific data / packets which you see and need clarification of, this is what is termed "protocol overhead".
