Can't download?
« on: July 15, 2010, 05:48:00 PM »
Hey guys, I've looked at the wiki and searched the forums about this, but I can't figure out what's wrong with my uTorrent.

I've tried to download the Fairy Tail anime the last week, but every time I try to it starts to download (after it opens in uTorrent), but then it stops by itself and goes inactive. I haven't been warned or anything about my ratio (it's .39 atm so I'm still in the right range).

I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. It's been working the last year, and nothings changed.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Do you have this problem with other torrents on BakaBT or elsewhere?

Give us a screenshot of the tracker message without revealing your passkey.

Don't know exactly what you mean for the picture, but I looked in the tracker tab and it says "Failure: use of the client is not allowed on our tracker, please see http://bakabt.me/whitelist.php"

Since when is uTorrent not accepted?   ???

did you care to read the whitelist and check your version of utorrent vs. the versions listed on said whitelist?

that's odd - are you using a proxy or something of that sort? and are you sure you are using 2.02 and not for example 2.2?

Yeah, try that. Uninstall, restart your comp, install the newest stable build.

BTW don't use a fake uTorrent. I remember there's a version of BitComet that disguises itself as uTorrent (though last I checked it disguised itself as uTorrent 1.8.5 to peers, not necessarily to the user). Download uTorrent directly from the uTorrent website. Just the default download should be fine, don't use 2.1 unless you absolutely need some of its new features.

Just covering another base here.
