Utorrent 1.8 messed up everything....

Hey Everyone...

First Off...

I was cool with 1.7.7 when everything was fine... den a little box came up dat messed up everything... it said upgrade to 1.8... i thought cool it might make my downloads even faster den before!.. but no .. it didnt... so then i tried for an hour to fix dis problem many times until i gave up reading posts... looking for answers.. etc... now i try to re download 1.7.7 and now that dont even work.. so now the best program in the history of programs is not working for me... it says i need to enter a working port when the port i was using was der for like years... and now nothing is downloading... but i do get a number of "fake" peers... but still no solid peers ... with the seeders its 0 fake and 0 solid seeds on every torrent i tried to download... what do i do... can somebody please help??

What internet security software do you have installed? (antivirus/firewall)

i have avast... but i turned off all my firewalls and antiviruses

Turning off doesn't equal stop interfering with most software firewall packages. Only uninstalling.

Does the problem persist with openoffice torrents?

yeahh it does.... i cant really do anything and trust me i tried everything.. i read every post... it was working fine until i upgraded... is der any way that i can fix 1.8??

Post a hijackthis log. There might be something glaring in it.

Ok, a lot of that looks like you have other problems on the system including virus infection remnants that could be directly causing the problem.

ok how do i get rid of dis

Reinstalling Windows would be the quickest way to unfuck your OS... Hell, you still have malware on your system. Antivirus 2008 PRO is one of them.

Just judging from how much is being cranky and how widespread the brokenness is, I'd just say reinstall. It's too far gone to actually repair.

aight man... well thanks for ur help but ders no need 2 b a dick about things

The thing is, even if you clean up the malware, they often leave Windows in a state of half-brokenness, so it's much easier to just reinstall it and start clean.

i dont have the cd to reinstall it damnn

You could of just rolled it back a day or so,with system restore,that's what a friend did when he didn't like it.

ok i just tried it and now its coming up with some seeds and peers... now the only problem is the port number... every port number i try is not working...

Try 45682.

this port number is the same port number i used for a long time since 1.6.. and now its not working... its still red... but i do get a download nonetheless its jus really really slow and not many seeds.. only about 2 seeds each torrent when ders like 550 seeders i can only connect to two...
