Having problems uploading

[aggiefury101]

A few days ago I upgraded to 2.0 and noticed my upload speed dropped. I switched back to 1.8.5 and the same problem happens. The torrent tries to upload, but immediately drops the peer. My ISP doesn't throttle. My port is forwarded correctly. Can anyone help me out?

Remains from Flashget toolbar:

O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {E0E899AB-F487-11D5-8D29-0050BA6940E3} - (no file)

...Seems you still have Flashget installed, but for some reason this part is "broken"!

Remains from Ask toolbar (probably the one that comes with uTorrent):

There's stuff that HijackThis misses, so there's probably more associated with those that may still be on your hard drive.

I doubt any of it runs, (such as at windows startup) it's just "eating" a very tiny amount of hard drive space.

If your problem is speed related, a speedtest.net link showing your down and up speed readings would be nice...

...as would a screenshot of uTorrent's Speed Guide CTRL+G settings, complete with whatever you an show of uTorrent in the background -- since there's no telling what might be useful from the GUI. (If privacy is a concern, hide the torrent names either by shrinking the column or moving it off the screen.)

Problem seems to have worked itself out, but just in case it comes up again here is what i'm seeing.

[Switeck]

uTorrent guessed incorrectly...you don't really have 1 MegaBYTE/sec sustainable upload speed.

ComCast gives a very high burst rate, but it only lasts for a few seconds...still enough to seriously skew a speedtest results higher than sustained amounts.

Try the 1.5 or 2 megabit/sec upload settings instead, as your picture shows you uploading ~145 KiloBYTE/sec.
