Stuck at "Connecting to Peers"

[MatrixReloaded]

This is a very common problem, I see. I have tried the slack torrents, and they work, but I realized the trackers weren't working. They would just say "Connection timed out."

 

I run Windows 7, and I use Malwarebytes for an anti-virus. However, it has excluded all of uTorrent's normal "virus" IP's.

 

Is there anything I can do?

Hi I have the same problem.

 

Do you use Peerblock?

 

I use Peerblock 1.2 and found that if I disable it most of the UDP trackers will work, though there are a few that still don't update.

 

By a tedious process of elimination,disabling lists one at a time, I discovered two lists which were blocking trackers (sorry I can't remember the names, I just deleted them - The name was just an URL with a lot of letters after:

like  h**p://list.iblocklist,com/?list=**************).

 

uTorrent's own IP blocklist didn't have any effect so I presume it's ok.

 

Hope this helps. If you're using Peerblock, just try running uTorrent without Peerblock for a few minutes and see if it helps.

 

 

It is still blocking some trackers so there must be another entry in one of the other lists
