rakshu Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Hello, I have a similar case but one of the torrents is just fine ( just started to seed as well) while the other is stuck. I keep seeing that you ask for "Trackers" tab. There you go. Thanks man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

420fan Posted August 2, 2014 Report Share Posted August 2, 2014 Uninstall it and use the norton removal tool. I have read through tons of forum posts regarding DHT not connecting, and peers not connecting, and every time, without fail, you point to internet security software. I have posted in 3 different threads about the issue and given you information ( see my post in this thread), but you only seem to point at security software. I've never seen you post anything else. Is there ANY OTHER POSSIBLE solutions? Could it indeed be something with the utorrent software? I'm not trying be difficult, but mine has been working flawlessly, and then one day(without changing ANYTHING, except having utorrent update) I/we have been having these problems. I was able to use 3 different torrent clients and they all seemed to work without "checking my interenet security software" I understand if you don't want to help, because it would require more than copy/pasting "check your internet security software". I'm curious if there MIGHT be another issue or solution to look at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadhead02 Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 I have same issue Can download from Traders Den & Etree without issue but once on Dime Utorrent gets stuck finding peers. I have contacted Dime & waiting for reply Utorrent is allowed on firewall & works with other sites so cannot believe its a security issue Canx the download and tried another on Dime with plenty of seeders and leeches but same result I am not techy & apart from checking utorrent is allowed on firewall have not altered anything on my computer. No internet connection problems There is stuff I desperately want so its very annoying. I have used Dime for years and years without issue - could it be the version of utorrent? I have 3.4.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 It means if etree torrents are working properly and dime torrents aren't, it's time to leave dime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
420fan Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 I'm still having issues connecting and I have tried EVERYTHING that has been on this forum as a "FIX" Something is broken with Utorrent, and no one wants to admit it. I have used Utorrent for years and never had a problem, until the last update, but yet all the fingers point to bad security software(seriously?),or its now the torrents fault ie dime torrents,or even its the ISP(which I could see) NO ONE HAS mentioned that it could be the new version of Utorrent! Why? Is Utorrent perfect and we are just a bunch of idiots? Is this the official forum for Utorrent? How do we get some answers other than pointing fingers? Why can I use 3 different torrent clients, VUZE, qbittorent and Utorrent and only 2 work??? Same settings on Security softwareSame settings on firewallSame ISP and yet Utorrent still is the only one that isn't' working Is there anyone who would like to give feedback and maybe point us in the right direction instead of 3 word answers about my security software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
