"Proxy Connection Error With µTorrent
Do you use µTorrent? Have you ever gotten this error message:

Proxy connect error: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

It would show up under the “Tracker Status” column. If this shows up, your connection speed may be limited, or you may not get a connection at all.

There is a very simple fix for this. Disable the proxy server settings. Here’s how:

1. Click on Options/Preferences.

2. Click on the “Connection” settings in the left dialog box.

3. You’ll see, on the right, where it says “Proxy Server.” In the “Type” box, select “(none).”

Now go back to your torrents, select them all (CTRL+A), right-click on them and select “Update Tracker.” After a few seconds they should say “working” in the “Tracker Status” column.

And that’s it. Enjoy!

Read a book. It’s good for you."
