chicagou Posted October 27, 2010 Report Posted October 27, 2010 My school just started using bluesocket (http://www.bluesocket.com/) for the wifi and there is a scan that makes me uninstall uTorrent in order to gain access. Although it is not too much of a big deal to uninstall then reinstall later, it is a hassle I would like to avoid. I have not figured out a way to do this yet...Does anyone know anthing that will help?
moogly Posted October 27, 2010 Report Posted October 27, 2010 A scan of what? Your computer? Do they analyze the use of the bandwidth by the students?
chicagou Posted October 27, 2010 Author Report Posted October 27, 2010 Yes, After I sign in there is a scan performed on my computer for what they consider threats. The two that showed up on my first try was windows firewall not being on and uTorrent being installed on my system. I do not know where it scans exactly... a friend of mine thinks it gets uTorrent from the uninstall programs list, where ever that is?! As far as I know they do not monitor bandwith.
moogly Posted October 28, 2010 Report Posted October 28, 2010 I'm very surprised they have the right to scan your computer. Whatever you have signed a paper of shit or not, your computer is private. Anyway just use µT as standalone on flash drive, you will be able to save your downloads on your computer.
chicagou Posted October 28, 2010 Author Report Posted October 28, 2010 Ok, so I just install on my flash drive vs c drive?
moogly Posted October 28, 2010 Report Posted October 28, 2010 You can store utorrent.exe on your flash drive (with the contents of %appdata%\utorrent in the same folder as utorrent.exe, it's covered in the FAQ) and save your torrents on your HDD.
