Help with ABC Torrent Program Error Messages

[mjolnir13]

I'm having a major problem with my torrent programs -- I've tried TorrentStorm and have gone back to ABC. The problem is that the torrents just stop in middownload....I've tried everything I can think of to fix this problem, including switching OS program (XP Home to XP Pro and back)...even reformatted my hard drive approximately 10 times in the past 4 days.

I recently started getting an error message to see the abc.log file. Following is the error messages I saw:

File "BitTornado\RawServer.pyc", line 146, in listen_forever
File "BitTornado\SocketHandler.pyc", line 336, in close_dead
File "BitTornado\SocketHandler.pyc", line 340, in _close_socket
File "BitTornado\BT1\Encrypter.pyc", line 188, in connection_lost
File "BitTornado\BT1\Encrypter.pyc", line 150, in sever

File "BitTornado\BT1\PiecePicker.pyc", line 91, in lost_have
File "BitTornado\BT1\PiecePicker.pyc", line 97, in _shift_over

Can anyone help? Thanks.

If you have a router, make sure it is configured properly for optimal downloads.

Also verify your firewall is set up correctly.

I don't have a router....the firewall was configured to allow full access

Have you ever tried Azeurus as an alternative client? I've had great success with it.

I've given up on ABC as I suspect it has issues with XP Home & Pro. Right now, I'm using Torrentstorm. Whatever glitch doesn't seem to be affecting it any longer.

I did download Azureus along with a couple of others so I might give it a try.

Thanks.
