Utorrent 1.8.3 killed all my downloads!

[JRobin1983]

Yeah, it did exactly that, and I've been trying to save my download speed for the last 5 hours now...

I used to have 1.8.2 and maintained a steady 300 kb/s speed all the time, and I figured I'd update to the 1.8.3 since it's been asking me to do it forever. And now only 5 of the torrents are downloading for a total of 50 kb/s.

I've been screwing around in the preferences, and even downloaded previous versions, but it's still stuck on 50 kb/s.

Can anyone offer any solution?

What internet security software do you have installed?

Also, this

and even downloaded previous versions

Is not a supported troubleshooting step.

[JRobin1983]

I have AVG installed, and run the anti-virus daily.

Well, I downloaded 1.8.3 and it was horrible, so I thought going back to 1.8.2 would work, and it didn't.

Post a hijackthis log please.
