DreadWingKnight Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Is it outbound or inbound communication that littlesnitch is reporting?If it can't tell you the difference, then littlesnitch isn't worth using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glinch Posted January 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Sorry, its outbound connections, that's what i meant to describe with calling out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Is all the traffic UDP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glinch Posted January 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Sorry there, i need to back track, I've made a mistake. It is all incoming data. So, im assuming uTorrent still keeps certain connections active even though its scheduled to remain idle? Wouldn't appear to be to big a problem. There isn't much of bandwidth used and there doesn't appear to be any data leaving my machine. Nothing to worry about I assume? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Your assumption is incorrect.The incoming connections are from peers that haven't caught up with the fact that your torrents are stopped.It's normal and not really stoppable.
