Utorrent not interfere apache

[brunoais]

I have the apache service installed in my computer, After having problems (continue reading to see the problem) and analyzing the apache logs I noticed that utorrent is overloading apache by sending lots and lots of GET requests to apache making it consume 100% of CPU.

Is there a way to force utorrent not to make requests to apache? Apache is listening to the ports: 80, 443, 8080.

I'm using utorrent version 2.2.1.

Extra: here is a sample of what utorrent is sending to apache. It's about 14 of these for each second.

127.0.0.1 - - [05/Apr/2011:22:42:37 +0100] "GET /announce?info_hash=%7f%22T%fb%fc.%b69%f0%ef_n5%df%1c%c0%0aQ%c8%0b&peer_id=-UT2210-%2ab%8bI%dd%ff%c24%09%fc1%21&port=45916&uploaded=229376&downloaded=0&left=0&corrupt=0&key=82F21B6F&event=started&numwant=200&compact=1&no_peer_id=1 HTTP/1.1" 404 1145 "-" "uTorrent/2210(25130)"

tracker.thepiratebay.org - you have torrents with it.

Period.

[brunoais]

like this one?

udp://tracker.thepiratebay.org:80/announce

There's problems with udp?

I don't understand correctly what's wrong with outgoing using port 80 and incoming using port 80

[DreadWingKnight]

The problem is that tracker.thepiratebay.org maps to 127.0.0.1

Doesn't matter if it's udp or http

Remove those from all your torrents.

Ok found the list of intruders (there may be more but these were the ones I had in about 200 torrents):

tracker.zerotracker.com -> points to 127.0.0.1 alternative unknown

*tracker.thepiratebay.org -> points to 127.0.0.1 use: udp://tracker.openbittorrent.com:80/announce instead

*www.sumotracker.com/announce -> points to 127.0.0.1 alternative unknown

BTW, the server is on for 2 hours now and it is working fine. Thanks for your help
