hippiemaster Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Hello.....I am using utorrent and today I noticed in one torrent I am seeding, that the name of my computer is on the peer list and is apparently.... downloading! It is not showing my IP in numbers but the actual name of my PC, which is quite unlikely a coincidence of names. Anyone can explain it to me please?It is there already a couple of hours now, with its downloading percentage increasing. It is not just an instant appearance and disappearance. It is there constantly, downloading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 It's nothing, just a reverse DNS game. And you or µT can't fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippiemaster Posted January 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 It's nothing, just a reverse DNS game. And you or µT can't fix it.So, it is something another user is doing? I don't mind "fixing" it. It doesn't really causing me any trouble. I just wanted to understand why is this happening. Thank you moogly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Its reverse DNS is .localhost, just a broken reverse DNS from its ISP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
