Hi All, I am currently seeding torrent "Rory Gallagher 1979-01-27 Middlesex, England (NTSC)"
( http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/showthread.php?t=36701 ).

On TTD it is showing as having no leechers, but I am uploading to 2 peers.
Is this a sign of someone using some kind of privacy program or some other way of being anonymous from TTD ??

Would like to know what people think about this and whether I should stop seeding until "genuine" TTD leechers come along ?? Is this a :nono: ??

Do you have DHT, Local peer discovery & peer exchange off? The show might be uploaded on another tracker and who knows?

That means that you are seeding to two leechers not registered within TTD. In your client, disable DHT to seed to them

These 3 things are showing as "not allowed" on utorrent. Never something I've messed with. My settings on utorrent are pretty much default. Not hugely bothered by it all, just curious as to how it's happened.

They might show they're not allowed but are those settings off? The program might have bugs. The default settings come with all those settings on.

they might have just started, or had been on before and jumped back on after a while. The page where the torrent file is doesn't update that often, so you may see them connect in your torrent downloader before they show up here.
