Err, what sort of content are you after?
Hint https://torrentfreak.com/
for the latest and historical information.
Or you can read the piracy block lists.
Use a VPN and good search engine like DuckDuckGo.

What are you using to download the torrents ?

I've been using utorrent but have just had it go mad and cant get it working
again.

Tried even an uninstall and reinstall but that doesn’t help.

With a new torrent, don’t get the popup which allows you to specify which
bits of the torrent you want.

Reclicking on the magnet in piratebay sees utorrent ask you if you want to
load new trackers as it used to so utorrent

clearly is trying to do something with the torrent but it never shows on the
main utorrent screen as downloading anymore.

In theory it might be the RSP killing torrents but utorrent still shows the
DHT nodes and appears to be uploading something

so that seems unlikely. And you can see activity in the graphs window.

Just froze this quite different window too and killing utorrent stopped the
freeze.

And the new trackers thing continue after an uninstall/new install too so it
cant be deleting everything with the uninstall.

Cant see it in program files or program file X86 either.

Just noticed 4 instances of utorrent in the task manager, one with a
slightly different name capitals wise. That does ring a slight bell with a
utorrent problem years ago.

Win 7

Works fine on a different win10 machine so it isnt the RSP.

Fixed it, stupidly forgot to delete the settings with the uninstall.

**Sorry, I missed this post. Yeah, I use uTorrent. It has always worked
a treat. A few ads, but nothing too intrusive.

For what it's worth, "apparently" some of the latest versions of
utorrent were buggy, and it was recommended to use v3.2.2 (from memory)

**I'm using 3.5.5 (build 46010). I allow it to upgrade when it wants to.
I can't say I've ever had a problem.

I still use 1.8.2 (on Win10Pro) - it works, no ads, no problems.

I was certainly running an older version which crashed, cant check the
version now.

Thanks for the warning, I will watch it and see what happens now.

And my memory has failed me. *apparently* the goto version is actually
2.2.1 . There was a fair reason to downgrade from newer versions, but I
cant remember exactly what it was. Wasnt just ads, there was something a
bit more nefarious. Just cranked up the old laptop with win 7, and 2.2.1
and away it goes....

Soz I cant remember *WHY*, but it was quite compelling to revert back
to 2.2.1
