How can I view the blocked traffic/IP. list,? what am I missing? [apart from braincells]also tried to manually install an IP. Filter.dat file, in >my roaming torrent folder< still nothing...

moogly Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 Create the file ipfilter.dat in folder %appdata%\utorrent then load it in Peer tab (right click).In logger tab, you will see:[2009-02-04 18:56:19] Loaded ipfilter.dat (292576 entries) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schnurlos Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 With using the ipfilter.dat you only see entries which are in this file already.uTorrent doesn't add the blocked peers (after hashfails) in that list - if you mean that.

moogly Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 You need to write IP to block in ipfilter.dat.Go to Peers tab of an active torrent. Righ click on a peer you want to block > Copy Selected Hosts.Open ipfilter.dat in %appdata%\utorrent and paste (ctrl+v). Save.Then go to Peer tab again, right click a random peer > Load IPFilter.Check your logger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 Did you enable the display of extensions for known file types to make sure your file didn't get a double-extension? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
