can u tell me what error u getting in tracker status??

also disable complete your firewall and restart utorrent..must work

Just keep getting offline timed out. Every torrent seems to work except one torrent from myspleen (Failure: Bad Client (UT1760). They banned 1.7.6 which i don't understand why, if every other tracker is embracing this current version due to the doss attack situation . Any Myspleen mods on here?

I've seen another tracker ban 1.7.6

now I'm a bit confused as to what version I should use. I don't really want to switch to another client.

I hope in a few weeks they make an exception for uTorrent 1.6.1. If they do i'm reverting back!

Thanks, rvt, for shedding light on this issue. It's starting to sound like a tempest in a teapot. I'm glad to know my old uTorrent version hadn't left me as vulnerable as it first sounded. Nevertheless, the upgrade was very easy and I can't tell I changed anything except the version number in the window bar. I've read that it could consume more system resources, but I can't find any evidence of that on either of my systems. At this point, I don't see any reason to reinstall an older version or change back to Azureus (the real resource glutton).
