today is the first day that I could not connect to several private trackers. ssl connection to tracker does not appear to matter. I can connect to the tracker(s) actually, but no peers are returned. I hop on distrowatch and bittorrent functions normally. im no power downloader/uploader and the only thing I've had seeded for weeks is the metal gear solid fan movie on a public tracker (which still works fine)

any other odd behaviors for other tww'ers? I'm in raleigh

probably doesn't make a difference, but i'm on the earthlink plan

its a bug in utorrent. Restart utorrent.

1. Connect to tracker via proxy
2. Get peerlist
3. Copy peerlist
4. Get rid of proxy
5. Manually add peers

I had a similar problem. I eventually just switched trackers.

it's not a bug, it's intentional behavior. I see peers connect and then disconnect about a second later. this could be due to the mpaa (or riaa?) ownership of utorrent or traffic shaping on behalf of twc. if I had more time this morning, I'd start up wireshark and see.
