Major torrent issues
So I have been very impressed by Windows 7 so far, but I have hit my forst major annoyance. It is extra annoying because it doesn't seem to be an issue for anyone else. Basically, torrents just plain don't work. I started out by installing Azureus which I had been using on XP. At first I could download torrent files and they would load into the client but not connect to anything. So I tried installing uTorrent in case it was just an Azureus glitch, but uTorrent did the same thing. Now I can't even get torrents to load into either client; when I download a torrent it just says that it is not a valid torrent file! I have allowed both clients access through my firewall (just using the Windows 7 firewall) and even tried turning it completely off but there is no change in performance. I have also tested the ports the clcients are using and they are both open, so I'm thinking there must be a security setting configured wrong or something. I'm going crazy here! Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this problem?
Cheers,
