Woody1193 Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Hello,I've been using uTorrent on one of my computers for half a year now. My university doesn't like bittorrent so I've been using a proxy and peerblock so I could get by with it. It's been working on that computer without fail all this time. However, I decided recently to install uTorrent on a new computer I built recently as I wasn't getting the most out of my bandwidth. I installed the clinet, peerblocker and the same proxy I always use. It was working fine for 3 days and getting speeds of 6Mb/s+ download and 3Mb/s+ upload. However, my computer crashed on Friday (4/20/2012) and uTorrent hasn't worked since.When I run my proxy I get the "Proxy Connect Error: No Connection Could Be Made Because the Target Machine Actively Refused It". However, when I turn my proxy off, I get the error "Connection Closed by Peer". Not sure what's happening.Can someone please help me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody1193 Posted April 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Update: I fixed those errors but now I've got an HTTP 500 error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 A 500 error is indicative of the problem on the tracker's end. Not much you can do about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody1193 Posted April 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Well that's what I thought as well but the other computer runs the same general setup as far as software is concerned and it doesn't have a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partsgod Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 I have been using uTorrent for over a year along with TorrentPrivacy. I also have a VPN running before I begin any internet browsing. Lately, I have received proxy errors including The Target Machine Actively refused it.I have upgraded to uTorrent Plus. When the application has loaded, I get an error message: Failed to download your Plus Licence key, could not obtain SSL Chunk Size. Another message: Failed to download your Plus Licence key. Proxy Connect error. No Connection Could be made because the target machine actively refused it.Although I have been using uTorrent for some time, I consider myself a novice. Please advise if this is an IP address error or something in my firewall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
