internet connection problem

[obit12345]

Hi. When uTorrent is open, and downloading something, I can't get the Internet Explorer to work. Or Firefox, or Safari.

I installed a new fresh copy of Windows 7. I tried without the antivirus, and still doesn't work.

When I close/exit Utorrent, I am able to use Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari again.

I've read/researched and could nlt find the answer.

I also read about the NOD32 somewhere, but I already uninstall the antivirus and it's still the same.

I appreciate any suggestions on how to fix this issue.

Thank you.

What brand router?

What brand modem?

[obit12345]

Embarq 660 series.

Other PCs in the network works fine. I can surf the net using any browser.

It's only the PC that uTorrent is installed and running.

Thanks.

Post a hijackthis log please.

This is what I got from hijackthis. I'm not sure if this is right.

Looks to me like you didn't run it as administrator.

[obit12345]

The account is the Administrator. I use this PC only for torrent.

Anyway, I am using Bitlord for now, and it works fine.

Is the problem the Antivirus or the firewall? What should I do/change to the firewall?

I prefer using the Windows firewall. Or the Symantec Endpoints built in firewall.

Thanks.

So you switched to an absolutely horrendous client that actually spies on you.

What setup guide did you use to configure uT?

[obit12345]

I know, that's what I heard. But this one works.

Setup on uTorrent is just the default. I didn't change anything after installation, except the Bandwith Management which I unchecked it.

Hi. I followed the documentation setup. And changed all the settings that were mentioned there.

So far, it works!!

I have Symantec Endpoints installed also.

Thank you very much.
