Re: Downloading Torrents With Utorrent
That makes no sense, all torrents are created using the same universal standard. Some programs allow you set the torrent to be private and thus disables DHT, but that's a discussion for another day. By default on uTorrent its set to use random ports every time for all torrents, unless you go under the settings and configure it to use a specific port, most commonly port 6881. I've been using uTorrent for quite awhile and never had any problems. Its by far the best torrent program I've used.dmegametal#1 wrote:thanks Chris..it seems like some torrents were specifically made for Utorrent clients not for ABC clients!!!

Re: Downloading Torrents With Utorrent
Mike..for example on isohunt..it requires you to use utorrent/Azureus ONLY..
some other sites doesn't tell you until you which torrent client will work only after you d/l the torrent and start and get the error message can't connect to tracker or NOT authorized to d/l this torrent!
