http error 404

[Mckirkn]

I am completely naive on the matter I am posting on so i may have things wrong or mixed up.

My tracker status says 'http error 404' but is still downloading at around 20 k/ps. i thought that http error 404 means that the site hosting the tracker cannot be found and so therefore i assumed that the download would stop. can anyone explain what's going on?

thank you to anyone who helps out with this

The tracker doesn't host the file. It's only one of a number of ways to join the swarm.

when i update tracker, i recieve the same error. tried it a few times and always says 'http error 404' and continues the download. how do i resolve this. i may need step by step due to computer illiteracy.

I don't know how much my internet package can affect speeds but i have sky unlimited which claims to not throttle my speeds so that adds to my confusion. It may be unrelated to the http error 404 problem but i thought i'd mention it as speeds of 20k/ps on an unlimited package seem ridiculous and the whole matter is bringing me down.

thank you for that first reply to DreadWingKnight and thanks to anyone who can further help.

There's nothing broken. uTorrent is behaving as designed and intended.

Your speeds are ultimately unrelated to that.

so i'm just greedy then. i want it all and i want it now. ha ha. i'll just sit tight from now and let it do it's job for me.

thanks again dreadwingknight for the contact and your view on it all.
