dnz Posted April 19, 2006 Report Posted April 19, 2006 Hi, I'm currently downloading a 350mb file and it never seems to complete.It's at 99.4% and connected to 3/189 seeds. When it has like 20s left to complete the download it jumps back up to 1m 30s left and goes up/down from there. It's been doing this all day now Under "Downloaded" it says that I have downloaded 1.10GB, although the file is only 350mb.I have downloaded several files before and after this one bugged.Also, the speed varies from around 30-1Have tried disabling DHT and Encryption but still the same problem Have also restarted utorrent and rebooted with no luck.(the icon is green)edit: just checked Logger and I keep getting "failed hash check" and banned ip-addresses, could it be poisoned ?Would be thankful for any help!

dnz Posted April 19, 2006 Author Report Posted April 19, 2006 I dont use a D-link router and my DMZ is disabled
Firon Posted April 19, 2006 Report Posted April 19, 2006 Well, it is possible it's a fake/poisoned torrent.If you look at the peer list, are others stuck at the same percent?
dnz Posted April 19, 2006 Author Report Posted April 19, 2006 I deleted the torrent and file, downloading another version.Thanks for the replies anyway
Angus Posted April 20, 2006 Report Posted April 20, 2006 Same problem here.I have tried the same file (basically episode 11 of a well known series) from multipe sources, all with similar results.I use a dlink, but no DMZ.The log is full of hash failed for all the sources. No errors for other files though.
Firon Posted April 20, 2006 Report Posted April 20, 2006 If you look at the Peers tab and see that others are stuck at the same percent, it's a fake torrent.
