uTorrent: tracker sending invalid data

Here's how to solve the problem with outpost 2008

* Right click on the Outpost icon and click "disable self-protection" (if it isn't already disabled)
* Go to your Outpost directory (probaly: C:\Program Files\Agnitum\Outpost Firewall Pro) and open the file "machine.ini"
* Find the option "EnableContentHandler=FALSE" and change it to "TRUE"
* Enable the self-protection and restart your Outpost
* Update all your torrents that uses private keys



If you are not using Outpost you need to set your firewall to "enable all connections" to get rid of this. seems like alot of the firewalls out there blocks the private trackers.

Outpost Pro is a mighty fine firewall with some additional security features not found in others. One of them is the "Ethernet Attack Detection" and this appears to be causing a conflict with µTorrent. The solution to getting µTorrent working correctly with Outpost is to do the following:-

1) Find out which port (or range of ports) µTorrent is binding to.
2) Open up the "Attack Detection Properties" in Outpost.
3) Click on the "ETHERNET" tab.
4) Uncheck the box which says "BLOCK INTRUDER WHEN HE SPOOFS HIS IP ADDRESS".
5) Click on the "ADVANCED" tab
6) At the bottom of the pop-up box you will see "EXCLUSIONS"
7) Click on the "PORTS" button and enter the port number (or range of ports) which µTorrent is binding to. You MUST do this for UDP (very important).

The above instructions will definitely resolve your problems

"if you are using outpost suite 2008....it's an outpost bug...you can workaround/fix it by setting EnableContentHandler=FALSE (instead of it's default value of TRUE) in machine.ini of outpost (saving of your editted machine.ini only works if you disable outpost self protection during save)."
