Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Thanks, I'll try that when I get home tonight.
I've been getting to know my registry editor real well, and I'm wondering: there are a ton of folders in there for various domains that I don't know what they are (a lot of porn and gambling and whatnot). Is there any reason not to delete those registry keys?
If you're worried, you can either back up your registry before you make any changes, or depending on what you're running (I forget) make a System Restore point before you delete stuff. That way, if anything goes boom, you can put it back.
Ah, good one. I have Windows XP.
Azureus now hates me. I'm pretty sure it's Azureus. The penultimate time I started it up, it installed some update, and now transfers are glacial (no ETAs). I'm using the NAT/Server port tester, and the ports that were being used now give a NAT error. The default ports give a NAT error. Port
80
gives a NAT error. My firewall hardware/config hasn't changed, and I turned Panda off for the duration of the test.
What should I be checking?
eta: Never mind -- I turned off Upnp and did some other fiddling, and now I'm at least passing the NAT test.
Grr. I'm back. So it's passing the NAT test just fine. But I'm still, despite seeing hundreds of peers and seeders in brackets, getting absolutely no action on that main window. In the status bar at the bottom it lists a download and upload speed, but not next to any of the actual files.
I've seen a couple people on LJ bitching about this update, ita. Which is not really any help, but at least you're not alone.
Okay, so what's the next torrent client in line? This is now useless software to me. Nothing's moving.
Creating a new profile seems to have solved my Firefox problems. Now to migrate settings...
