Harold Feit Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Do the Slackware torrents from http://www.slackware.com/getslack/torrents.php give the same behavior (while all other torrents are STOPPED)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gerry Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 I seem to have accidentally fixed my problem. If if can help anyone else I am not sure.My problem seemed to be fixed by disconnecting from the proxy server I was using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold Feit Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 If Slackware torrents are doing the same thing then something in your setup (either your internet security software or your internet provider) is blocking.Configure or remove your internet security software (configure permanently, remove temporarily) to see if that helps.

Guest Bob Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 I was using bitcomet before (I know :/) and downloading a torrent, but when I previewed it, it was a recorded version from a camera, so I stopped the download, deleted it, chose another 1, and it won't download now, switched to bttorrent, and it still does the same.

Guest Jake Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 If Slackware torrents are doing the same thing then something in your setup (either your internet security software or your internet provider) is blocking.Configure or remove your internet security software (configure permanently, remove temporarily) to see if that helps.What if the slackware torrents are working but nothing else will?

Harold Feit Posted February 4, 2012 Report Share Posted February 4, 2012 If slackware torrents are working fine, it's purely the torrents you're choosing.Enable the trackers tab (NOT COLUMN, right-click on one of the tabs you have and enable it) and give the status for the trackers.

Guest Guest Posted February 18, 2012 Report Share Posted February 18, 2012 I have the same problem with music and video torrents.Not the same with chess software, though. And software in general. I´ve downloaded at least 2G of stuff. Would that mean that it´s NOT the internet provider? What else could it be?Any ideas please contact meantonioinotna@hotmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Not important Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Same hire, but it depends, it's not generally files over 1GB, i download files over 20GB and no problems. But theres that one file i need badly right now, i cant get it, other torrents on the list work, seeding and leeching without any problems. Just that one file. Please help!
