I've just had the update to build 34543, and I am experiancing issues with my downloads. After either magnet link or adding the torrent, the program freezes and becomes unresponsive. I unistalled the program, rebooted, and fresh installed, to no avail. I have checked the ports and I am baffeled. Assistance would be appreciated. JW

Greetings BTSync forum: I've been using BTSync for months now. It has worked flawlessly for me with directories containing huge amounts of data (several gig). I keep a laptop at home running BTSync, Teamviewer, Bittorrent, etc etc. I use another laptop on the road (at work) and sync files back and forth without any problem. However, I have ran across a situation that I believe may be a bug. A previous poster from this thread: http://forum.bittorrent.com/topic/17448-btsync-no-start-syncing/ indicated they were having problems with "special characters" hanging the BTSync process. I am having trouble with BTSync hanging after I open a Word or Excel file. After the file (any file) is opened, a temporary file with ~$ added to the beginning of the filename is created as part of Microsoft Office's "AutoRecover" process. The file "~$filename.docx" will be created and synced, but when I close the file and the "~$filename.docx" is removed, the sync process hangs in BTSync. Has anyone else experienced this issue?
