moogly Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 It's not a bug, LW supports BT. Use ipfilter.dat to block a peer using LW.http://www.utorrent.com/faq/misc#faq11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee1001 Posted July 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 This is not the real limewire it's from same source as (fake)utorrent,I've tried the blocker it does not work on this one,I tell you the problem is that when a torrent is well seeded and a good ratio of +7,and you stop it and check it later all your ratio is gone,it's like new torrent ratio 0.0 completes in 3hours ect,they suck all the ratio,I'm kind of stumped on this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moogly Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 Well, BT clients form a huge world.Some clients are mutli-protocol download manager like Bitcomet, Limewire or Free Download Manager (FDM) etc... And often BT support in these clients is not 100% compliant and stable with the BT protocol. That's a fact and uT can do nothing against that.Anyway during you're seeding/leeching, if you don't want to poison your client with some peers using these BT clients, just add each peer IP into ipfilter.dat when you see them in Peers tab.Reinstalling uT will NOT change anything.
