    Hash fails occur when the data isn't trasferred properly. When packets are lost somewhere in the pipes, the checksums won't match. These packets will have to be resent, hence the "wasted data". You can't do anything about this exept maybe get a connection with better routing .

    Use an IP Filter file in order to weed out those companies that purposely (and probably illegally) polute torrents with bogus data...

    Redirect you to the offical utorrent forum, I think you might get some useful answers there.

    It's definitely something strange with your connection. What client do you use?
    Live long and prosper.
