Comments: Blocking IP addresses in uTorrent

4 comments

Last Sunday I added a torrent to my favorite bittorrent client: µTorrent. The download went quite fast in the beginning, but after sometime it crawled close to a halt. When I checked the "Peers" tab in µTorrent I noticed something very odd. A two groups of very similar IP addresses, all using the same bittorrent client: Azureus, and all using the same version: 2.4.0.2. One group started with 38.100 and the other group started with 208.10.

Read the rest of Blocking IP addresses in uTorrent.

Thanks for the explanation - good to know that these companies exist, and that I can block them :-)

Same problem here - that's how I found your site. I'd have found out from the documentation where to put the filter list but your explanation just saved me several minutes. Many thanks!
