DreadWingKnight Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 Im using U torrent 1.6.1 on windows Vista.We don't support 1.6.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazze Posted May 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 hmm where can i get support for that version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 Wherever they told you to use it. If you chose to... why don't you auto-update, or go to http://utorrent.com/download/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazze Posted May 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 because on my tracker newer versions are not allowed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 So change the tracker. uT 1.6.1 has major security holes readable remotely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazze Posted May 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 damn that sucks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 Edit: If you didn't see above, I suggested you get support for your version at the tracker since they're telling you to use that old deprecated version. I bet they even offer it for download off their site?If they already have a policy outlining why they don't allow the year old 1.8 or two year old 1.7, then there's nothing to do. As far as if they don't, like moogly said... there are remote exploits specifically reported against that old version. So if they don't have a policy in place, try a PM, and then if that doesn't get anywhere maybe a forum/comment post on the matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazze Posted May 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 hey i installed new version of utorrent (1.8.2). but i still got the same problems!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 So how did the tracker communication go?As far as continuation.. Can you take a picture of your Speed Guide settings? uploading to imageshack procedure gives a rough list of the steps. Have you read through the sticky? It's linked as Read Me in my signature.

mazze Posted May 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 1. here is the photo http://yfrog.com/77speedguidej2. what u mean with communication of the tracker (sry my englsich...)3. yes i read the link u marked as read me. i read the part slow connection or interruption and there i read every point espacially the settings partAnd what i forgot to say.. i dont have any antivir software installed or any firewall active...

jewelisheaven Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 Thank you for the picture. Are you sure you upload @ 1 Mbit? In uT when you ARE seeding, it goes up to 90 continually before disconnect? I'd try changing the Ctrl-P > Bandwidth > Number of connections ... divide by 2. :/As far as the tracker... did they allow the new version? Did you stop using it because they didn't allow the new version? Did they know that 1.6.1 is many years old and exploitable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazze Posted May 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 it was my mistake with the tracker.. it sais version 1.6+ so 1.8.2 is allowed!i can max upload with 100 KB/s and usually its between 70-90... thats what my old PC did before i sold it...

jewelisheaven Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 OK. So you have an open port? Ctrl-P > Advanced > net.max_halfopen click it, press RESET so you don't see *50 or anything like that but ONLY 8. That might be it then. If not, try reducing your active connections by 50% until it doesn't do that :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazze Posted May 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 okay i had net.max_halfopen on 8.. i reduced my connections to only one single active connection and still got the same problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 You're only... using 1 connection? Alt-H-S . I know you can limit it to halfopen 1, but totally. Yeah, it sounds like either Vista is broken, or you have something else on there you don't want. :/ So I'd be sure to run a virus / trojan / rootkit program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazze Posted May 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 y i think its something with my vista.. i installed u torrents on a friends notebook (windows XP) with same settings and downloaded from my home.. everything worked fine... so any tips what to do now??

winvik Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 I have this problem too! on Vista (on XP it works fine)!But I see - not all connections loose, for example Weather Gaget works and Windows update works... But browser can't open any internet page ( After restarting it work.mazze, are you using Internet Explorer 8? I think, some trouble with it... becouse before installing IE8 everything worked... But Firefox can't browse any page also... Maybe, installing IE8 configure some connection parameter?P.S. Sorry, my english is not good )) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 Did you mess with net.max_halfopen? It needs to be set to 8. Lowering it may be a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazze Posted May 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 I browse with Firefox 3.. i have my Computer since 5 days and IE was already installed... i lowerd net.max_halfopen from 8 to 1 and still got the problem... as we figured out it must be something with my windows settings.. but dunno what...

Switeck Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 Disable Resolve IPs...by right-clicking in PEERS window of an active torrent.Reduce both global and per-torrent connections to 60 or less.Disable Local Peer Discovery.And if none of that helped, try the LAST section in the 1st link of my signature.

winvik Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 Probably I have solved this problem...I look at "Computer management / Event Viewer / System" and see some events with yellow triangle... it was events of Windows Defender and they appear in same time then connection loosing... So I disable Windows Defender and problem not appear still... So I will observe further of my system to be convinced of correctness of my assumption... mazze, did you have this events in Event Viewer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazze Posted May 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 i still have the problem with windows defender deactivated.. i found the yellow triangle too but couldnt interpretate the errors.. just numbers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

makaidan Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 I'm having the same problem, I have Win Vista and the latest version of uTorrent.I have been able to use internet for several hours without problem, then as soon as I start using uTorrent I have about 2mins before all internet connections are cut off.I have tried both with and without firewalls no change.Had the same problem using latest versions of BitTorrent and Limewire before swiching to uTorrent.Could it be a problem with my ISP, they have recently started tracking usage, and have started limiting connection speeds at peak times.
