gorbie_geek Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 some feedback from the admins would be very welcomed.I upgraded to 1.1.5 and the same thing is happening, and once again, the process ID identified by AVG is tracked back to uTorrent ... what is going on?This kinda doesn't sit well with me ... :?

1c3d0g Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 That would be a false positive, most likely. You should complain to the AVG developers to fix their program. Or, better yet, install ClamWin and forget AVG. Thank me later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4wd Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Just because it's outside the normal port range for a torrent client doesn't mean that one isn't using it.Port 110 is normally designated as POP3 traffic - this is all AVG is picking up on, the port number.Some people use standard service ports to bypass some form of port blocking where they are at work, uni, etc, etc.You also get this with the likes of eDonkey clients, eg. I've had warnings from ZA saying that Shareaza wants to send email - it doesn't, it just wants to connect to a node who's using port 25.Port 110 is POP3 = incoming email, (http://grc.com/port_110.htm), your log shows that uTorrent is trying to receive email not send it.And the reason you don't see a client connected is because AVG disconnected because it didn't receive a reply from a mail server.The problem is AVG, (it should filter better), not uTorrent.

QQ Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 would it be good to change the port (110) in AVG E-mail Scanner to something else? like 109? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 It'd be better if you could add an exception for µTorrent instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
